Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 14.3 over 72 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Bowling
Economy under pressure

Going at 5.98 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 25% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (5 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.16 dismissals per match across 80 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 0 × 40% · Batting 46 × 30% · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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 2). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 2 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 11 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 80 matches — 0.14 per match.
Batting
926 runs in 72 innings, adjusted average 14.3, strike rate 90.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 30 wickets from 176.0 overs across 41 matches bowled in (of 80 played) — 0.73 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
