Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 8.2 over 49 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 20% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.23 dismissals per match across 47 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.0.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 21 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 52 × 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 47). 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: 11 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 47 matches — 0.23 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 49 innings at 8.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
15 wickets in 14 matches bowled in (of 47 played) — 0.32 per match at 17.0, economy 4.87, strike rate 20.9.
