Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 11.0 over 94 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 19% 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 16.2.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.14.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 34 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 58 × 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 (Rep Div 1 20 · 3rd grade 12 · Club 11). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 43 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 31 catches + 8 run outs (5 direct, 3 assisted) in 118 matches — 0.33 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 94 innings at 11.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 132 wickets in 107 matches bowled in (of 118 played) — 1.23 per match at 16.2, economy 3.14, strike rate 30.9.
