Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 3.3 over 109 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Fielding
Catching return too low for selection

Only 0.14 catches per match over 230 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 30% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.21.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 25 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 35 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.85 for the level played (1st grade 36). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 36 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 33 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 230 matches — 0.15 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 109 innings at 3.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
387 wickets in 224 matches bowled in (of 230 played) — 1.73 per match at 19.9, economy 3.21, strike rate 37.2.
