Critical recommendations

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

2 of 3 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 2.69 is excellent but a wicket every 58 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

info General
Small sample size

Only 3 batting innings imported — import more of this player's matches before treating these findings as conclusive.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.69.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 48 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.62 for the level played (1st grade 1 · 2nd grade 2 · 3rd grade 1). 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 + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 4 matches — 0.25 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 3 innings at 6.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
4 wickets in 4 matches — 1.00 per match at 26.3, economy 2.69, strike rate 58.5.
