Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 14.0 over 13 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

6 of 10 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.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.9.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.32.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 17 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 59 × 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 15). 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 + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 15 matches — 0.27 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 13 innings at 14.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
17 wickets in 14 matches bowled in (of 15 played) — 1.21 per match at 17.9, economy 3.32, strike rate 32.4.
