Critical recommendations

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 18% 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

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 14 × 40% · Batting 56 × 30% · Bowling 48 × 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 6). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 6 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 3 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 20 matches — 0.15 per match.
Batting
364 runs in 22 innings, adjusted average 17.3, strike rate 90.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
30 wickets in 20 matches — 1.50 per match at 25.5, economy 4.05, strike rate 37.8.
