Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 7.0 over 57 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 18% 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 3.70.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 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
- ×0.49 for the level played (2nd grade 15 · 3rd grade 16 · 4th grade 2). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 33 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 25 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 87 matches — 0.30 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 57 innings at 7.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 113 wickets in 84 matches bowled in (of 87 played) — 1.35 per match at 20.3, economy 3.70, strike rate 32.9.
