Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 5.0 over 33 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

15 of 25 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 30% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.9.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 23 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 43 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 67 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.32 for the level played (Rep Div 1 1 · Club 27). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 28 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 14 catches + 4 run outs (2 direct, 2 assisted) in 44 matches — 0.41 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 33 innings at 5.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
60 wickets in 42 matches bowled in (of 44 played) — 1.43 per match at 15.9, economy 4.13, strike rate 23.1.
