Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 7.4 over 74 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 19% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.0.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.94.
- ✓ Safe hands — 41 catches in 115 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 18 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 67 × 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 9). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 9 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 41 catches + 8 run outs (8 direct, 0 assisted) in 115 matches — 0.43 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 74 innings at 7.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 210 wickets in 113 matches bowled in (of 115 played) — 1.86 per match at 15.0, economy 2.94, strike rate 30.6.
