Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 13.5 over 49 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.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 17 catches in 47 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 44 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 30 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.46 for the level played (1st grade 3 · Rep Div 1 9 · 2nd grade 1 · 3rd grade 22 · Club 9 · 4th grade 3). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 17 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 47 matches — 0.45 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 49 innings at 13.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 5 wickets in 8 matches bowled in (of 47 played) — 0.11 per match at 33.0, economy 3.75, strike rate 52.8.
