Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 13.8 over 26 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Bowling
Conceding too many extras

2.0 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.

high Bowling
Economy under pressure

Going at 6.72 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 15% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.18 dismissals per match across 33 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 18 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 40% · Batting 38 × 30% · 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 16). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 16 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 6 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 33 matches — 0.18 per match.
Batting
291 runs in 26 innings, adjusted average 13.8, strike rate 57.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
12 wickets in 18 matches bowled in (of 33 played) — 0.67 per match at 20.2, economy 6.72, strike rate 18.0.
