Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 9.1 over 78 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 27 × 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
×0.31 for the level played (Rep Div 1 4 · Club 92). 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: 25 catches + 6 run outs (6 direct, 0 assisted) in 96 matches — 0.32 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 78 innings at 9.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
90 wickets in 87 matches bowled in (of 96 played) — 1.03 per match at 24.1, economy 4.65, strike rate 31.1.
