Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 8.6 over 77 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 16% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
medium
Fielding
Low overall fielding impact
0.22 dismissals per match across 99 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 39 × 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 99). 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: 18 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 99 matches — 0.22 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 77 innings at 8.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 56 wickets in 81 matches bowled in (of 99 played) — 0.69 per match at 22.8, economy 4.54, strike rate 30.1.
