Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 12.6 over 65 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 11% 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 42 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 32 × 30%. 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 17). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 17 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 21 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 83 matches — 0.27 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 65 innings at 12.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 86 wickets in 73 matches bowled in (of 83 played) — 1.18 per match at 24.2, economy 4.67, strike rate 31.1.
