Critical recommendations

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 15% 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

0.22 dismissals per match across 23 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 23 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 36 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.72 for the level played (Rep Div 1 14 · Club 2). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 16 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 4 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 23 matches — 0.22 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 13 innings at 22.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
17 wickets in 22 matches bowled in (of 23 played) — 0.77 per match at 27.8, economy 4.72, strike rate 35.4.
