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.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.86 is excellent but a wicket every 47 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 11 catches in 25 matches (0.44 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 43 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 35 × 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 20). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 20 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 11 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 25 matches — 0.44 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 21 innings at 11.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
17 wickets in 24 matches bowled in (of 25 played) — 0.71 per match at 30.1, economy 3.86, strike rate 46.8.
