Critical recommendations

high Batting

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.8.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 60 × 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 34). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 34 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 15 catches + 4 run outs (3 direct, 1 assisted) in 63 matches — 0.30 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 53 innings at 20.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
80 wickets in 62 matches bowled in (of 63 played) — 1.29 per match at 16.8, economy 3.83, strike rate 26.3.
