Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 10.2 over 17 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

10 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.

high Bowling
Conceding too many extras

1.1 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 24% 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

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 24 balls.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 9 catches in 20 matches (0.45 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 54 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.45 for the level played (Rep Div 1 5 · Club 11). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 16 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 7 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 20 matches — 0.45 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 17 innings at 10.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
22 wickets in 14 matches bowled in (of 20 played) — 1.57 per match at 21.7, economy 5.31, strike rate 24.5.
