Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 14.3 over 9 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Bowling
Economy under pressure

Going at 6.16 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

5 of 7 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 6 catches in 12 matches (0.50 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 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
×0.43 for the level played (Rep Div 1 6 · Club 6). 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: 6 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 12 matches — 0.50 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 9 innings at 14.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 4 wickets from 19.0 overs across 7 matches bowled in (of 12 played) — 0.57 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
