Critical recommendations
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 15 catches in 42 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.35 for the level played (Rep Div 1 3 · Club 39). 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: 12 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 42 matches — 0.33 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 43 innings at 16.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 3 wickets from 4.5 overs across 4 matches bowled in (of 42 played) — 0.07 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
