Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 10.8 over 27 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

12 of 22 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.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.24 dismissals per match across 29 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 14 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 26 × 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 29). 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 + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 29 matches — 0.24 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 27 innings at 10.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
16 wickets in 24 matches bowled in (of 29 played) — 0.67 per match at 25.7, economy 4.73, strike rate 32.6.
