Critical recommendations
8 of 11 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Out for 0 in 31% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 114.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 12.4.

- Overall

- Level
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 12). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
