Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 6.7 over 22 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

11 of 15 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.

high Bowling
Economy under pressure

Going at 6.29 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).

high Fielding
Catching return too low for selection

Only 0.00 catches per match over 32 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 18% 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 0 × 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 32). 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: 0 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 32 matches — 0.00 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 22 innings at 6.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 9 wickets from 58.8 overs across 18 matches bowled in (of 32 played) — 0.50 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
