Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 14.9 over 96 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.
medium
Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.4.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.21.
- ✓ Safe hands — 43 catches in 123 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 49 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.48 for the level played (Rep Div 1 15 · Club 25). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 43 catches + 6 run outs (3 direct, 3 assisted) in 123 matches — 0.40 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 96 innings at 14.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 106 wickets in 117 matches bowled in (of 123 played) — 0.91 per match at 16.4, economy 3.21, strike rate 30.6.
