Adjusted average of 14.7 over 34 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
high
Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball
12 of 22 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
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.41.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 47 × 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 48). 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: 14 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 48 matches — 0.29 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 34 innings at 14.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 61 wickets in 43 matches bowled in (of 48 played) — 1.42 per match at 21.3, economy 3.41, strike rate 37.5.
