Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 9.6 over 30 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

10 of 18 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 13% 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 12.1.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.29.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 65 × 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 47). 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: 6 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 47 matches — 0.17 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 30 innings at 9.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
29 wickets in 43 matches bowled in (of 47 played) — 0.67 per match at 12.1, economy 2.29, strike rate 31.8.
