Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 14.3 over 42 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

15 of 29 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 Fielding
Keeping dismissal rate below par

0.33 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 12.0.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.60.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 26 catches in 46 matches (0.57 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 60 × 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 46). 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: 12 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 46 matches — 0.26 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 42 innings at 14.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
33 wickets in 36 matches bowled in (of 46 played) — 0.92 per match at 12.0, economy 2.60, strike rate 27.7.
