Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 9.5 over 114 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 13% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.40 is excellent but a wicket every 49 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.40.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 62 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 43 × 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 15). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 15 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 44 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 166 matches — 0.27 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 114 innings at 9.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
182 wickets in 161 matches bowled in (of 166 played) — 1.13 per match at 28.0, economy 3.40, strike rate 49.3.
