Critical recommendations
highBatting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 11.7 over 93 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
highFielding
Catching return too low for selection
Only 0.13 catches per match over 105 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
mediumBatting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 20% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 25 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 13 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.35 for the level played (Rep Div 1 5 · 3rd grade 13 · Club 27). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 45 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 13 catches + 9 run outs (3 direct, 6 assisted) in 105 matches — 0.21 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 93 innings at 11.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
56 wickets in 97 matches bowled in (of 105 played) — 0.58 per match at 23.8, economy 4.76, strike rate 30.1.
