Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 10.3 over 86 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.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.9.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.21.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 27 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 63 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.47 for the level played (State competition 9 · 1st grade 11 · Rep Div 1 33 · 2nd grade 6 · 3rd grade 5 · Club 62). 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: 24 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 126 matches — 0.23 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 86 innings at 10.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 100 wickets in 117 matches bowled in (of 126 played) — 0.85 per match at 16.9, economy 3.21, strike rate 31.5.
