Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 6.8 over 62 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 29% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
medium
Bowling
Tight but not threatening
Economy of 3.89 is excellent but a wicket every 43 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 40 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.64 for the level played (1st grade 17 · Rep Div 1 5 · 2nd grade 25 · 3rd grade 4 · Club 18 · 4th grade 5 · 5th grade and below 1). 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: 18 catches + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 75 matches — 0.28 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 62 innings at 6.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 93 wickets in 70 matches bowled in (of 75 played) — 1.33 per match at 27.8, economy 3.89, strike rate 42.9.
