Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 11.2 over 108 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

30 of 53 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.

high Fielding
Catching return too low for selection

Only 0.04 catches per match over 127 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 Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 17% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 15 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 33 × 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 17). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 17 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 5 catches + 4 run outs (3 direct, 1 assisted) in 127 matches — 0.07 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 108 innings at 11.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
21 wickets in 51 matches bowled in (of 127 played) — 0.41 per match at 35.7, economy 4.58, strike rate 46.8.
