Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 9.6 over 50 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 26% 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 17.5.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 65 × 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 34). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 34 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 13 catches + 6 run outs (2 direct, 4 assisted) in 52 matches — 0.37 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 50 innings at 9.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
38 wickets in 51 matches bowled in (of 52 played) — 0.75 per match at 17.5, economy 3.91, strike rate 26.9.
