Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 11.9 over 54 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.19 is excellent but a wicket every 43 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 34 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.53 for the level played (Rep Div 1 15 · Club 63). 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: 18 catches + 9 run outs (9 direct, 0 assisted) in 78 matches — 0.35 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 54 innings at 11.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
54 wickets in 74 matches bowled in (of 78 played) — 0.73 per match at 22.9, economy 3.19, strike rate 43.0.
