Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 2.9 over 17 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
high
Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball
2 of 4 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 27 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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 (Rep Div 1 10 · Club 12). 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: 6 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 22 matches — 0.36 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 17 innings at 2.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 21 wickets from 86.7 overs across 17 matches bowled in (of 22 played) — 1.24 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
