Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 9.4 over 18 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 17% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.81 is excellent but a wicket every 44 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 17 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 43 × 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 21). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 21 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 7 catches + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 32 matches — 0.31 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 18 innings at 9.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
24 wickets in 28 matches bowled in (of 32 played) — 0.86 per match at 28.1, economy 3.81, strike rate 44.3.
