Critical recommendations

high Fielding
Catching return too low for selection

Only 0.08 catches per match over 12 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.15 is excellent but a wicket every 40 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

info General
Small sample size

Only 4 batting innings imported — import more of this player's matches before treating these findings as conclusive.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.15.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 12 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 52 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.83 for the level played (1st grade 10 · Rep Div 1 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: 1 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 12 matches — 0.08 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 4 innings at 4.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
17 wickets in 12 matches — 1.42 per match at 21.1, economy 3.15, strike rate 40.2.
