Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 10.1 over 135 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

52 of 99 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.

high Bowling
Conceding too many extras

0.9 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 21% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.19 dismissals per match across 169 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 45 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.60 for the level played (2nd grade 11). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 11 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 25 catches + 5 run outs (3 direct, 2 assisted) in 169 matches — 0.18 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 135 innings at 10.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 50 wickets from 329.5 overs across 100 matches bowled in (of 169 played) — 0.50 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
