Going at 6.54 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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 7). 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: 4 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 7 matches — 0.57 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 6 innings at 21.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 6 wickets from 22.3 overs across 5 matches bowled in (of 7 played) — 1.20 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
