Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 7.2 over 26 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

8 of 15 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 15% 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 2.72 is excellent but a wicket every 55 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.72.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 40 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 37 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.51 for the level played (1st grade 7 · Rep Div 1 2 · 2nd grade 22 · 3rd grade 11 · Club 5). 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 + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 47 matches — 0.38 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 26 innings at 7.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
64 wickets in 46 matches bowled in (of 47 played) — 1.39 per match at 24.9, economy 2.72, strike rate 54.8.
