Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 9.1 over 38 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 18% 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 28 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 58 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 40). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 11 catches + 6 run outs (3 direct, 3 assisted) in 56 matches — 0.30 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 38 innings at 9.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 82 wickets in 51 matches bowled in (of 56 played) — 1.61 per match at 20.2, economy 4.14, strike rate 29.2.
