Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball
17 of 29 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
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 17 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 38 × 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 65). 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: 14 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 65 matches — 0.25 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 52 innings at 15.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 23 wickets in 51 matches bowled in (of 65 played) — 0.45 per match at 21.0, economy 4.47, strike rate 28.2.
