Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 13.6 over 49 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.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 50 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.64 for the level played (Rep Div 1 34 · Club 21). 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: 16 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 55 matches — 0.38 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 49 innings at 13.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 39 wickets in 42 matches bowled in (of 55 played) — 0.93 per match at 20.7, economy 3.88, strike rate 32.1.
