Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 12.1 over 54 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 17% 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

0.67 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 42 catches in 63 matches (0.67 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 10 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 52 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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 13 · 3rd grade 1 · Club 21). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 35 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Keeping: 30 catches + 10 stumpings + 9 run outs (2 direct, 7 assisted) in 63 matches — 0.78 dismissals per match.
Batting
Not rated: 54 innings at 12.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 8 wickets from 42.8 overs across 14 matches bowled in (of 63 played) — 0.13 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
