Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 13.3 over 52 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Bowling
Tight but not threatening
Economy of 3.02 is excellent but a wicket every 40 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.02.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 58 × 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 54). 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: 15 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 54 matches — 0.28 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 52 innings at 13.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 37 wickets in 39 matches bowled in (of 54 played) — 0.95 per match at 20.3, economy 3.02, strike rate 40.3.
