Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 12.1 over 27 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.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.24 dismissals per match across 38 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.18.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 58 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.30 for the level played (Club 36). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 36 matches since 2 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 7 catches + 2 run outs (0 direct, 2 assisted) in 38 matches — 0.24 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 27 innings at 12.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
33 wickets in 35 matches bowled in (of 38 played) — 0.94 per match at 18.1, economy 3.18, strike rate 34.2.
