Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 6.1 over 16 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 19% 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

0.15 dismissals per match across 20 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.16.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 55 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.26 for the level played (1st grade 2 · 4th grade 7 · 5th grade and below 11). 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: 2 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 20 matches — 0.10 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 16 innings at 6.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
29 wickets in 19 matches bowled in (of 20 played) — 1.53 per match at 20.1, economy 3.16, strike rate 38.2.
