Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 12.8 over 38 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.
medium
Fielding
Low overall fielding impact
0.20 dismissals per match across 49 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 13 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 43 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.53 for the level played (1st grade 7 · Rep Div 1 5 · 2nd grade 9 · 3rd grade 6 · Club 20 · 4th grade 2). 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 + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 49 matches — 0.20 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 38 innings at 12.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 26 wickets in 29 matches bowled in (of 49 played) — 0.90 per match at 24.2, economy 3.87, strike rate 37.5.
