Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 9.9 over 24 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Bowling
Tight but not threatening
Economy of 3.72 is excellent but a wicket every 40 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.72.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 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
- ×0.44 for the level played (Rep Div 1 12 · Club 16). 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: 7 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 28 matches — 0.39 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 24 innings at 9.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 15 wickets in 23 matches bowled in (of 28 played) — 0.65 per match at 25.0, economy 3.72, strike rate 40.3.
