Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 8.6 over 33 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 15% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.22 dismissals per match across 65 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 22 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 12 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 53 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.38 for the level played (National competition 11 · Club 54). 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: 13 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 65 matches — 0.22 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 33 innings at 8.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
72 wickets in 56 matches bowled in (of 65 played) — 1.29 per match at 19.6, economy 5.46, strike rate 21.5.
