Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 14.3 over 65 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
high
Bowling
Conceding too many extras
0.9 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
medium
Fielding
Low overall fielding impact
0.16 dismissals per match across 82 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.2.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 21 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 64 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.39 for the level played (State competition 6 · Rep Div 1 17 · Club 59). 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: 13 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 82 matches — 0.16 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 65 innings at 14.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 55 wickets in 71 matches bowled in (of 82 played) — 0.77 per match at 14.2, economy 3.99, strike rate 21.3.
