Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 11.3 over 47 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.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.43 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 23 catches in 54 matches (0.43 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 38 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 45 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.41 for the level played (Rep Div 1 7 · Club 23). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 30 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 23 catches + 4 run outs (3 direct, 1 assisted) in 54 matches — 0.50 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 47 innings at 11.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 51 wickets in 48 matches bowled in (of 54 played) — 1.06 per match at 23.6, economy 4.05, strike rate 34.9.
