Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 13.6 over 52 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.7.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.21.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 65 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 51 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.74 for the level played (1st grade 23 · 2nd grade 11 · Club 2). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 36 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 24 catches + 9 run outs (5 direct, 4 assisted) in 90 matches — 0.37 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 52 innings at 13.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 157 wickets in 85 matches bowled in (of 90 played) — 1.85 per match at 17.7, economy 3.21, strike rate 33.1.
