Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 14.0 over 47 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 15% 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 — 20 catches in 53 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 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
×0.30 for the level played (Club 36). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 36 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 13 catches + 5 run outs (3 direct, 2 assisted) in 53 matches — 0.34 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 47 innings at 14.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 13 wickets from 117.0 overs across 25 matches bowled in (of 53 played) — 0.52 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
