Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 4.1 over 27 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

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.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.20 dismissals per match across 41 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 56 × 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 41). 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: 8 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 41 matches — 0.20 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 27 innings at 4.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
42 wickets in 32 matches bowled in (of 41 played) — 1.31 per match at 19.4, economy 4.65, strike rate 25.1.
