Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 8.8 over 19 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 26% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
medium
Bowling
Tight but not threatening
Economy of 3.39 is excellent but a wicket every 54 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.39.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 46 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.23 for the level played (1st grade 1 · Club 7 · 5th grade and below 15). 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 + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 23 matches — 0.26 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 19 innings at 8.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 21 wickets in 22 matches bowled in (of 23 played) — 0.95 per match at 30.8, economy 3.39, strike rate 54.4.
