Critical recommendations

high Batting

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.50.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 34 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 56 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.34 for the level played (State competition 1 · 1st grade 1 · Rep Div 1 14 · Club 122). 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: 38 catches + 6 run outs (6 direct, 0 assisted) in 138 matches — 0.32 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 121 innings at 20.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
231 wickets in 128 matches bowled in (of 138 played) — 1.80 per match at 18.4, economy 3.50, strike rate 31.6.
