Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 13.9 over 116 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 Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 11.7.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.79.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 10 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 72 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.85 for the level played (1st grade 242). 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: 53 catches + 10 run outs (10 direct, 0 assisted) in 242 matches — 0.26 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 116 innings at 13.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
299 wickets in 225 matches bowled in (of 242 played) — 1.33 per match at 11.7, economy 2.79, strike rate 25.1.
