Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 13.2 over 52 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.40 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 19 catches in 48 matches (0.40 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 31 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 51 × 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 48). 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: 19 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 48 matches — 0.40 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 52 innings at 13.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
45 wickets in 32 matches bowled in (of 48 played) — 1.41 per match at 24.5, economy 4.19, strike rate 35.1.
