Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 12.9 over 93 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 15% 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 16.5.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 23 balls.
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 12 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 57 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.36 for the level played (Rep Div 1 5 · Club 35). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 33 catches + 12 run outs (7 direct, 5 assisted) in 139 matches — 0.32 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 93 innings at 12.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 204 wickets in 129 matches bowled in (of 139 played) — 1.58 per match at 16.5, economy 4.27, strike rate 23.2.
