Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 11.6 over 120 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
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.92.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 53 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.37 for the level played (Rep Div 1 32 · 3rd grade 4 · Rep Div 2 6 · Club 92 · 4th grade 8 · 5th grade and below 14). 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: 40 catches + 8 run outs (8 direct, 0 assisted) in 156 matches — 0.31 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 120 innings at 11.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 145 wickets in 148 matches bowled in (of 156 played) — 0.98 per match at 18.9, economy 2.92, strike rate 38.7.
