Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 10.7 over 70 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 19% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
medium
Fielding
Low overall fielding impact
0.17 dismissals per match across 98 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 15 × 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
- ×0.31 for the level played (Rep Div 1 7 · Club 67 · 4th grade 11 · 5th grade and below 13). 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 + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 98 matches — 0.17 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 70 innings at 10.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 66 wickets in 93 matches bowled in (of 98 played) — 0.71 per match at 23.2, economy 4.03, strike rate 34.5.
