Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 4.2 over 7 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Fielding
Catching return too low for selection

Only 0.10 catches per match over 10 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.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.10 is excellent but a wicket every 52 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.10.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 14 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 42 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.78 for the level played (Rep Div 1 10). 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: 1 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 10 matches — 0.20 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 7 innings at 4.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
13 wickets in 10 matches — 1.30 per match at 26.6, economy 3.10, strike rate 51.5.
