Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 5.8 over 45 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 13% 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 — 29 catches in 80 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 46 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 52 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.36 for the level played (National competition 3 · Club 34). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 37 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 29 catches + 5 run outs (1 direct, 4 assisted) in 80 matches — 0.42 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 45 innings at 5.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 114 wickets in 73 matches bowled in (of 80 played) — 1.56 per match at 23.3, economy 4.23, strike rate 33.1.
