Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 9.6 over 69 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 19% 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 86 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 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
- ×0.42 for the level played (State competition 4 · Rep Div 1 8 · Club 74). 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: 13 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 86 matches — 0.20 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 69 innings at 9.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 78 wickets in 79 matches bowled in (of 86 played) — 0.99 per match at 21.6, economy 3.93, strike rate 32.9.
