Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 13.5 over 18 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Bowling
Tight but not threatening
Economy of 3.07 is excellent but a wicket every 44 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.44 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 11 catches in 25 matches (0.44 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 48 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.38 for the level played (Rep Div 1 6 · Club 19). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 11 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 25 matches — 0.44 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 18 innings at 13.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 22 wickets in 22 matches bowled in (of 25 played) — 1.00 per match at 22.3, economy 3.07, strike rate 43.6.
