Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 13.7 over 73 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

29 of 52 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 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.23 dismissals per match across 88 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.7.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 20 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting 39 × 30% · Bowling 50 × 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 13). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 13 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 16 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 88 matches — 0.23 per match.
Batting
777 runs in 73 innings, adjusted average 13.7, strike rate 71.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
79 wickets in 71 matches bowled in (of 88 played) — 1.11 per match at 16.7, economy 5.01, strike rate 20.0.
