Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 7.3 over 16 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

7 of 12 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

1.0 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 Fielding
Keeping dismissal rate below par

0.31 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 10 catches in 26 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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 14). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 14 matches since 2 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Keeping: 7 catches + 1 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 26 matches — 0.31 dismissals per match.
Batting
Not rated: 16 innings at 7.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 9 wickets from 35.5 overs across 15 matches bowled in (of 26 played) — 0.60 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
