Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 12.5 over 5 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.40 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 12.7.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.02.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 65 × 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 7). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 7 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 4 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 10 matches — 0.40 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 5 innings at 12.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
15 wickets in 9 matches bowled in (of 10 played) — 1.67 per match at 12.7, economy 3.02, strike rate 25.1.
