Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 10.1 over 59 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 15% 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
0.20 dismissals per match across 84 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.2.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.79.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 22 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 12 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 66 × 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 20). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 20 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 16 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 84 matches — 0.20 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 59 innings at 10.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 165 wickets in 76 matches bowled in (of 84 played) — 2.17 per match at 14.2, economy 3.79, strike rate 22.4.
