Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 8.3 over 16 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.87 is excellent but a wicket every 56 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.18 dismissals per match across 17 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting 36 × 30% · Bowling 41 × 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 17). 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: 3 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 17 matches — 0.18 per match.
Batting
112 runs in 16 innings, adjusted average 8.3, strike rate 33.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
16 wickets in 17 matches — 0.94 per match at 35.8, economy 3.87, strike rate 55.5.
