Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 7.6 over 116 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
high
Fielding
Catching return too low for selection
Only 0.14 catches per match over 163 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 10 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 46 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.64 for the level played (1st grade 103 · Rep Div 1 20 · 2nd grade 5 · Club 35). 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: 23 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 163 matches — 0.15 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 116 innings at 7.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 172 wickets in 148 matches bowled in (of 163 played) — 1.16 per match at 26.1, economy 4.14, strike rate 37.8.
