Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 11.0 over 41 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 15% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.59 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.75.
- ✓ Safe hands — 23 catches in 39 matches (0.59 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 56 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 53 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.51 for the level played (1st grade 1 · 2nd grade 14 · 3rd grade 9 · 4th grade 15). 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: 23 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 39 matches — 0.64 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 41 innings at 11.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 59 wickets in 38 matches bowled in (of 39 played) — 1.55 per match at 21.2, economy 3.75, strike rate 33.9.
