Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 8.0 over 19 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 16% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.50 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.64.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 10 catches in 20 matches (0.50 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 50 × 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 20). 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: 10 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 20 matches — 0.50 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 19 innings at 8.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
39 wickets in 19 matches bowled in (of 20 played) — 2.05 per match at 18.4, economy 3.64, strike rate 30.3.
