Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 4.9 over 16 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

10 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.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 25% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 58 × 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 8). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 8 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 4 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 19 matches — 0.26 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 16 innings at 4.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
20 wickets in 18 matches bowled in (of 19 played) — 1.11 per match at 23.6, economy 4.14, strike rate 34.2.
