Critical recommendations
highBatting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 12.6 over 57 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
highBatting
Vulnerable to the straight ball
29 of 48 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.
highFielding
Catching return too low for selection
Only 0.11 catches per match over 74 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
mediumBatting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 19% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.08.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 12 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 53 × 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 40). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 40 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 8 catches + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 74 matches — 0.15 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 57 innings at 12.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
80 wickets in 71 matches bowled in (of 74 played) — 1.13 per match at 18.4, economy 3.08, strike rate 35.8.
