Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 10.7 over 28 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Bowling
Tight but not threatening
Economy of 3.62 is excellent but a wicket every 47 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.62.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 17 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 22 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.32 for the level played (3rd grade 3 · Club 11 · 4th grade 6). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 20 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 8 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 40 matches — 0.25 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 28 innings at 10.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 41 wickets in 38 matches bowled in (of 40 played) — 1.08 per match at 28.6, economy 3.62, strike rate 47.4.
