Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 14.6 over 21 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

11 of 16 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.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 11 catches in 27 matches (0.41 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 42 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 56 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.61 for the level played (Rep Div 1 17 · Club 9). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 26 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 11 catches + 2 run outs (0 direct, 2 assisted) in 27 matches — 0.48 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 21 innings at 14.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
34 wickets in 27 matches — 1.26 per match at 20.3, economy 4.31, strike rate 28.2.
