Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 8.8 over 14 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

8 of 11 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.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 29% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.9.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.11.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 58 × 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 9). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 9 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 7 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 23 matches — 0.30 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 14 innings at 8.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
31 wickets in 22 matches bowled in (of 23 played) — 1.41 per match at 16.9, economy 3.11, strike rate 32.5.
