Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 7.9 over 9 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
Too many aerial dismissals
6 of 7 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.35.
- ✓ Safe hands — 6 catches in 16 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 27 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 61 × 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 16). 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: 6 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 16 matches — 0.38 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 9 innings at 7.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 21 wickets in 16 matches — 1.31 per match at 20.8, economy 3.35, strike rate 37.3.
