Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 11.2 over 21 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

7 of 11 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.

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 83 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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.

Keeping: 31 catches + 0 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 20 matches — 1.55 dismissals per match.
