Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 14.3 over 25 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 16% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 10 catches in 28 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 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
- ×0.38 for the level played (2nd grade 3 · 3rd grade 18 · Club 1 · 4th grade 5 · 5th grade and below 1). 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: 8 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 28 matches — 0.29 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 25 innings at 14.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 3 wickets from 9.0 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 28 played) — 0.11 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
