Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 12.1 over 54 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

17 of 31 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.

high Bowling
Conceding too many extras

1.4 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 17% 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

0.20 dismissals per match across 64 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 11 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 35 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.42 for the level played (State competition 8 · 1st grade 5 · Rep Div 1 1 · 2nd grade 4 · Club 46). 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: 10 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 64 matches — 0.16 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 54 innings at 12.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
32 wickets in 54 matches bowled in (of 64 played) — 0.59 per match at 23.4, economy 5.20, strike rate 27.1.
