Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 11.1 over 146 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.21 dismissals per match across 253 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.4.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.42.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 14 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 64 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.54 for the level played (National competition 12 · Club 23). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 35 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 43 catches + 8 run outs (8 direct, 0 assisted) in 253 matches — 0.20 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 146 innings at 11.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
333 wickets in 235 matches bowled in (of 253 played) — 1.42 per match at 16.4, economy 3.42, strike rate 28.8.
