Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 10.4 over 26 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 15% 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

0.17 dismissals per match across 35 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.68.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 11 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 58 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.65 for the level played (1st grade 7 · 2nd grade 25 · 3rd grade 1 · 4th grade 2). 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 35 matches — 0.17 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 26 innings at 10.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
54 wickets in 32 matches bowled in (of 35 played) — 1.69 per match at 21.2, economy 3.68, strike rate 34.6.
