Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 14.2 over 15 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.99 is excellent but a wicket every 44 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 43 × 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: 6 catches + 2 run outs (0 direct, 2 assisted) in 18 matches — 0.44 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 15 innings at 14.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
16 wickets in 18 matches — 0.89 per match at 28.9, economy 3.99, strike rate 43.5.
