Critical recommendations
highBatting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 7.3 over 55 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
highBowling
Economy under pressure
Going at 5.85 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
mediumBatting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 27% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
mediumFielding
Low overall fielding impact
0.21 dismissals per match across 87 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 46 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.31 for the level played (1st grade 3 · Club 21 · 4th grade 5 · 5th grade and below 11). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 40 matches since 2 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 16 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 87 matches — 0.21 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 55 innings at 7.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
61 wickets in 79 matches bowled in (of 87 played) — 0.77 per match at 26.5, economy 5.85, strike rate 27.1.
