Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 13.7 over 36 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 19% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
medium
Fielding
Low overall fielding impact
0.21 dismissals per match across 47 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 5 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.39 for the level played (Rep Div 1 3 · Club 13). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 16 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 7 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 47 matches — 0.21 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 36 innings at 13.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 12 wickets from 67.3 overs across 15 matches bowled in (of 47 played) — 0.26 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
