Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 11.6 over 19 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 2.71 is excellent but a wicket every 44 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.71.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 14 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 49 × 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 31). 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: 8 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 31 matches — 0.26 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 19 innings at 11.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
44 wickets in 29 matches bowled in (of 31 played) — 1.52 per match at 19.7, economy 2.71, strike rate 43.7.
