Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 12.7 over 42 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Bowling
Tight but not threatening
Economy of 3.78 is excellent but a wicket every 42 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 40 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.33 for the level played (Rep Div 1 6 · Club 51 · 4th grade 2). 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: 19 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 59 matches — 0.32 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 42 innings at 12.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 47 wickets in 52 matches bowled in (of 59 played) — 0.90 per match at 26.3, economy 3.78, strike rate 41.7.
