Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 13.0 over 43 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
high
Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball
10 of 20 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.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.4.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.18.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 60 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.43 for the level played (Rep Div 1 11 · Club 29). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 11 catches + 4 run outs (1 direct, 3 assisted) in 61 matches — 0.25 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 43 innings at 13.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 53 wickets in 60 matches bowled in (of 61 played) — 0.88 per match at 14.4, economy 3.18, strike rate 27.2.
