Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 12.9 over 82 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 13% 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 3.37 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 3.37.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 47 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.65 for the level played (1st grade 62 · 2nd grade 35 · 3rd grade 6 · Club 8 · 4th grade 1). 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: 36 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 112 matches — 0.34 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 82 innings at 12.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 192 wickets in 108 matches bowled in (of 112 played) — 1.78 per match at 23.5, economy 3.37, strike rate 41.9.
