Critical recommendations
highBatting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 11.5 over 76 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
highFielding
Catching return too low for selection
Only 0.10 catches per match over 86 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
mediumBatting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 14% 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 13.8.
✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.78.
✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 22 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 11 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 68 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.58 for the level played (1st grade 17 · Rep Div 1 6 · Club 20). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 43 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 9 catches + 8 run outs (3 direct, 5 assisted) in 86 matches — 0.20 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 76 innings at 11.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
70 wickets in 82 matches bowled in (of 86 played) — 0.85 per match at 13.8, economy 3.78, strike rate 21.9.
