Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 13.5 over 87 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 13% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 112). 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: 35 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 112 matches — 0.33 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 87 innings at 13.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 131 wickets in 95 matches bowled in (of 112 played) — 1.38 per match at 24.3, economy 4.90, strike rate 29.7.
