Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 8.4 over 80 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.6.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.83.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 54 × 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 28). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 28 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 32 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 135 matches — 0.25 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 80 innings at 8.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 212 wickets in 127 matches bowled in (of 135 played) — 1.67 per match at 17.6, economy 2.83, strike rate 37.3.
