Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 13.9 over 57 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.7.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.18.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 60 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.46 for the level played (State competition 4 · Rep Div 1 8 · Club 28). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 18 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 68 matches — 0.29 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 57 innings at 13.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 84 wickets in 66 matches bowled in (of 68 played) — 1.27 per match at 15.7, economy 3.18, strike rate 29.6.
