Critical recommendations

info General
Small sample size

Only 3 batting innings imported — import more of this player's matches before treating these findings as conclusive.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 6.2.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.02.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 19 balls.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 7 catches in 11 matches (0.64 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 64 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 81 × 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 11). 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 + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 11 matches — 0.73 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 3 innings at 22.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
21 wickets in 10 matches bowled in (of 11 played) — 2.10 per match at 6.2, economy 2.02, strike rate 18.6.
