Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 12.9 over 28 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

10 of 20 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 Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 18% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.47 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 15 catches in 32 matches (0.47 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 5 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 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
×0.41 for the level played (Rep Div 1 17 · Club 15). 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
Keeping: 15 catches + 5 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 32 matches — 0.62 dismissals per match.
Batting
Not rated: 28 innings at 12.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
6 wickets in 6 matches bowled in (of 32 played) — 0.19 per match at 20.7, economy 4.00, strike rate 31.0.
