Critical recommendations

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 10% 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 3.41 is excellent but a wicket every 46 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.24 dismissals per match across 87 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.41.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 45 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.59 for the level played (1st grade 24 · Rep Div 1 2 · 2nd grade 39 · 3rd grade 11 · Club 11). 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: 14 catches + 6 run outs (6 direct, 0 assisted) in 87 matches — 0.23 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 59 innings at 15.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
91 wickets in 75 matches bowled in (of 87 played) — 1.21 per match at 25.9, economy 3.41, strike rate 45.5.
