Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 9.9 over 94 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 16% 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
0.20 dismissals per match across 115 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.23.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 15 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 50 × 30%. 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 115). 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: 23 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 115 matches — 0.20 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 94 innings at 9.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 174 wickets in 107 matches bowled in (of 115 played) — 1.63 per match at 19.2, economy 3.23, strike rate 35.6.
