Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 10.5 over 43 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
Too many aerial dismissals
21 of 30 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.1.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.68.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 23 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 72 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.45 for the level played (Rep Div 1 22 · Club 74). 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: 22 catches + 4 run outs (2 direct, 2 assisted) in 96 matches — 0.27 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 43 innings at 10.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 128 wickets in 80 matches bowled in (of 96 played) — 1.60 per match at 14.1, economy 3.68, strike rate 23.0.
