Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 6.8 over 44 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

21 of 33 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 23% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.2.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.36.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 18 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 62 × 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 52). 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: 12 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 52 matches — 0.27 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 44 innings at 6.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
88 wickets in 46 matches bowled in (of 52 played) — 1.91 per match at 15.2, economy 3.36, strike rate 27.2.
