Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 4.9 over 11 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Bowling
Conceding too many extras

0.8 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.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 10 catches in 18 matches (0.56 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 55 × 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 16). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 16 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 10 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 18 matches — 0.61 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 11 innings at 4.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 7 wickets from 37.0 overs across 17 matches bowled in (of 18 played) — 0.41 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
