Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 11.5 over 47 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 13% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 30 × 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 64). 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: 14 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 64 matches — 0.25 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 47 innings at 11.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 29 wickets in 52 matches bowled in (of 64 played) — 0.56 per match at 19.7, economy 3.08, strike rate 38.3.
