Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 9.5 over 13 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
high
Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball
3 of 4 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.32 for the level played (Rep Div 1 1 · Club 11). 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: 2 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 12 matches — 0.25 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 13 innings at 9.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 6 wickets from 33.0 overs across 11 matches bowled in (of 12 played) — 0.55 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
