Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 4.9 over 9 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 51 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.40 for the level played (Rep Div 1 7 · Club 26). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 33 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 8 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 33 matches — 0.27 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 9 innings at 4.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 53 wickets in 32 matches bowled in (of 33 played) — 1.66 per match at 23.1, economy 3.92, strike rate 35.4.
