Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 14.6 over 52 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Fielding
Keeping dismissal rate below par

0.30 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

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.71.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 35 catches in 66 matches (0.53 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 14 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 40 × 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 66). 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: 15 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 66 matches — 0.23 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 52 innings at 14.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
39 wickets in 32 matches bowled in (of 66 played) — 1.22 per match at 21.0, economy 3.71, strike rate 34.0.
