Critical recommendations

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

8 of 10 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.55 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 40% · Batting 39 × 30% · Bowling 74 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.30 for the level played (Club 20). 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.

Outfield: 11 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 20 matches — 0.55 per match.
