Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 14.5 over 82 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
high
Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball
25 of 46 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 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.8.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 23 balls.
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 18 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 47 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 61 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.56 for the level played (State competition 1 · 1st grade 10 · Rep Div 1 4 · 2nd grade 24 · Club 15). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 54 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 28 catches + 18 run outs (9 direct, 9 assisted) in 129 matches — 0.36 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 82 innings at 14.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 102 wickets in 108 matches bowled in (of 129 played) — 0.94 per match at 14.9, economy 3.82, strike rate 23.4.
