Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 4.7 over 62 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

25 of 44 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 18% 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 11.5.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.08.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 22 balls.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 28 catches in 81 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 44 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 69 × 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 81). 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: 28 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 81 matches — 0.40 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 62 innings at 4.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
81 wickets in 73 matches bowled in (of 81 played) — 1.11 per match at 11.5, economy 3.08, strike rate 22.3.
