Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 13.2 over 35 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 20% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 22). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 22 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 12 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 39 matches — 0.31 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 35 innings at 13.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 13 wickets from 86.0 overs across 19 matches bowled in (of 39 played) — 0.68 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
