Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 21% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.19.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 52 × 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 24). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 24 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 18 catches + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 91 matches — 0.23 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 84 innings at 17.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 79 wickets in 78 matches bowled in (of 91 played) — 1.01 per match at 20.0, economy 3.19, strike rate 37.7.
