Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 14.6 over 69 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
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.
medium
Bowling
Tight but not threatening
Economy of 2.91 is excellent but a wicket every 42 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.91.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 52 × 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 95). 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: 32 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 95 matches — 0.34 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 69 innings at 14.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 98 wickets in 84 matches bowled in (of 95 played) — 1.17 per match at 20.6, economy 2.91, strike rate 42.4.
