Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 14.3 over 38 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 17 catches in 49 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 40 × 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
- ×0.57 for the level played (1st grade 6 · 2nd grade 25 · Club 9). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 17 catches + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 49 matches — 0.41 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 38 innings at 14.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 63 wickets in 49 matches — 1.29 per match at 24.9, economy 4.44, strike rate 33.7.
