Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 10.0 over 54 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

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.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.42 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 24 balls.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 27 catches in 64 matches (0.42 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 39 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 54 × 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 26). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 26 matches since 2 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 26 catches + 3 run outs (0 direct, 3 assisted) in 64 matches — 0.45 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 54 innings at 10.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
45 wickets in 53 matches bowled in (of 64 played) — 0.85 per match at 20.5, economy 5.16, strike rate 23.8.
