Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

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

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.9.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.46.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 74 catches in 209 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 66 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 64 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.44 for the level played (1st grade 3 · 2nd grade 14 · Club 24). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 41 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 74 catches + 7 run outs (5 direct, 2 assisted) in 209 matches — 0.39 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 133 innings at 12.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
296 wickets in 200 matches bowled in (of 209 played) — 1.48 per match at 15.9, economy 3.46, strike rate 27.5.
