Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 7.2 over 6 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

3 of 6 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 Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.65 is excellent but a wicket every 69 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 55 × 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
×0.30 for the level played (Club 6). 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: 3 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 6 matches — 0.67 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 6 innings at 7.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 2 wickets from 23.0 overs across 5 matches bowled in (of 6 played) — 0.40 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
