Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 6.3 over 13 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
high
Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball
5 of 8 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 12.5.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 19 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 53 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 66 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.59 for the level played (Rep Div 1 7 · Club 12). 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: 5 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 19 matches — 0.47 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 13 innings at 6.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 22 wickets in 18 matches bowled in (of 19 played) — 1.22 per match at 12.5, economy 3.99, strike rate 18.8.
