Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 12.3 over 9 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.42 is excellent but a wicket every 130 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 7 catches in 7 matches (1.00 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 62 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 22 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.85 for the level played (1st grade 7). 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: 7 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 7 matches — 1.00 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 9 innings at 12.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
5 wickets in 7 matches — 0.71 per match at 74.2, economy 3.42, strike rate 130.0.
