Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 10.7 over 7 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

3 of 5 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.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 11.3.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.36.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 67 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.31 for the level played (3rd grade 3 · Club 6 · 4th grade 1). 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: 3 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 10 matches — 0.30 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 7 innings at 10.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
18 wickets in 10 matches — 1.80 per match at 11.3, economy 2.36, strike rate 28.7.
