Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 14.6 over 121 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (5 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.51 is excellent but a wicket every 42 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.51.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 52 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.46 for the level played (1st grade 10 · 2nd grade 65 · 3rd grade 41 · 4th grade 9 · 5th grade and below 2). 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: 38 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 127 matches — 0.31 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 121 innings at 14.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
131 wickets in 102 matches bowled in (of 127 played) — 1.28 per match at 24.8, economy 3.51, strike rate 42.3.
