Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 12.4 over 21 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 8 catches in 22 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 12 × 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
- ×0.59 for the level played (Rep Div 1 16 · Club 6). 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: 4 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 22 matches — 0.23 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 21 innings at 12.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 4 wickets from 19.0 overs across 5 matches bowled in (of 22 played) — 0.18 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
