Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 12.2 over 69 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
medium
Fielding
Low overall fielding impact
0.24 dismissals per match across 83 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 45 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.44 for the level played (2nd grade 2 · 3rd grade 20). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 22 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 14 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 83 matches — 0.23 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 69 innings at 12.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 56 wickets in 70 matches bowled in (of 83 played) — 0.80 per match at 24.6, economy 4.27, strike rate 34.6.
