Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 13.9 over 51 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Bowling
Tight but not threatening
Economy of 3.20 is excellent but a wicket every 52 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 37 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 71). 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: 21 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 71 matches — 0.34 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 51 innings at 13.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 45 wickets in 67 matches bowled in (of 71 played) — 0.67 per match at 27.8, economy 3.20, strike rate 52.1.
