Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 14.7 over 80 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 18% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 29 catches in 83 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 36 × 40% · Batting 55 × 30% · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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 27). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 27 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 29 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 83 matches — 0.35 per match.
- Batting
- 1,069 runs in 80 innings, adjusted average 14.7, strike rate 86.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 12 wickets from 52.0 overs across 15 matches bowled in (of 83 played) — 0.14 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
