Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 12.4 over 42 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.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.8.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.10.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 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
- ×0.64 for the level played (National competition 5 · 1st grade 3 · Rep Div 1 30 · Club 10). 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: 11 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 48 matches — 0.27 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 42 innings at 12.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 77 wickets in 46 matches bowled in (of 48 played) — 1.67 per match at 14.8, economy 3.10, strike rate 28.7.
