Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 9.3 over 56 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

26 of 44 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 20% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 31 catches in 58 matches (0.53 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 27 × 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
×0.29 for the level played (Club 43 · 4th grade 2 · 5th grade and below 13). 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
Keeping: 30 catches + 2 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 58 matches — 0.55 dismissals per match.
Batting
Not rated: 56 innings at 9.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 0 wickets from 1.0 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 58 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
