Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 14.4 over 12 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

5 of 10 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

0.9 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.

high Fielding
Catching return too low for selection

Only 0.14 catches per match over 14 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.19.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting 35 × 30% · Bowling 61 × 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 14). 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: 2 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 14 matches — 0.36 per match.
Batting
148 runs in 12 innings, adjusted average 14.4, strike rate 45.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
8 wickets in 13 matches bowled in (of 14 played) — 0.62 per match at 20.6, economy 3.19, strike rate 38.8.
