Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 12.6 over 44 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.6.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.50.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 45 × 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
- ×0.51 for the level played (Rep Div 1 5 · 2nd grade 14 · 3rd grade 3 · Club 12). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 34 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 26 catches + 7 run outs (3 direct, 4 assisted) in 76 matches — 0.43 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 44 innings at 12.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 122 wickets in 71 matches bowled in (of 76 played) — 1.72 per match at 15.6, economy 3.50, strike rate 26.8.
