Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 2.7 over 6 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

3 of 4 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.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.4.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.85.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 62 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.65 for the level played (1st grade 1 · Rep Div 1 3 · Club 3). 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: 0 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 7 matches — 0.43 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 6 innings at 2.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
10 wickets in 7 matches — 1.43 per match at 13.4, economy 2.85, strike rate 28.2.
