Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 9.4 over 90 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.8.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.26.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 19 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 58 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.31 for the level played (Rep Div 1 2 · Club 121). 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: 32 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 123 matches — 0.28 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 90 innings at 9.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 131 wickets in 117 matches bowled in (of 123 played) — 1.12 per match at 16.8, economy 3.26, strike rate 30.9.
