Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 13.6 over 58 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
high
Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball
24 of 42 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 22 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 48 × 30%. 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 24). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 24 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 22 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 79 matches — 0.28 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 58 innings at 13.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 61 wickets in 62 matches bowled in (of 79 played) — 0.98 per match at 19.7, economy 5.33, strike rate 22.2.
