Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 10.6 over 20 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

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 Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.38 is excellent but a wicket every 50 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.38.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 12 × 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
×0.30 for the level played (Club 19). 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 + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 19 matches — 0.32 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 20 innings at 10.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
14 wickets in 15 matches bowled in (of 19 played) — 0.93 per match at 28.4, economy 3.38, strike rate 50.3.
