Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 10.4 over 28 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
high
Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball
12 of 24 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 12.8.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.93.
- ✓ Safe hands — 12 catches in 31 matches (0.39 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 70 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 31). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 10 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 31 matches — 0.32 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 28 innings at 10.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 48 wickets in 27 matches bowled in (of 31 played) — 1.78 per match at 12.8, economy 2.93, strike rate 26.1.
