  • ● Body of work — 44 imported matches (+0.9)

Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 8.4 over 23 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

5 of 7 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.4.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.13.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 10 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 46 × 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 8). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 8 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 9 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 44 matches — 0.27 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 23 innings at 8.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
50 wickets in 38 matches bowled in (of 44 played) — 1.32 per match at 16.4, economy 3.13, strike rate 31.5.
