Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 8.6 over 39 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
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.2.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 25 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 55 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.43 for the level played (Rep Div 1 9 · Club 10 · 4th grade 13). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 32 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 9 catches + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 42 matches — 0.29 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 39 innings at 8.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 47 wickets in 35 matches bowled in (of 42 played) — 1.34 per match at 16.2, economy 3.87, strike rate 25.1.
