Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 11.7 over 73 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.0.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.46.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 27 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 43 × 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 25). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 25 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 23 catches + 6 run outs (3 direct, 3 assisted) in 93 matches — 0.31 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 73 innings at 11.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 116 wickets in 90 matches bowled in (of 93 played) — 1.29 per match at 15.0, economy 2.46, strike rate 36.5.
