Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 12.4 over 9 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

2 of 4 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.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.22 dismissals per match across 18 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 8.9.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.02.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 18 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 78 × 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 18). 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: 4 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 18 matches — 0.22 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 9 innings at 12.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
38 wickets in 18 matches — 2.11 per match at 9.0, economy 3.02, strike rate 17.8.
