Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 8.1 over 76 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

34 of 48 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 21% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.12 is excellent but a wicket every 43 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.23 dismissals per match across 110 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.12.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 46 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.70 for the level played (1st grade 91 · 2nd grade 7 · 3rd grade 9 · 4th grade 3). 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: 25 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 110 matches — 0.23 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 76 innings at 8.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
191 wickets in 105 matches bowled in (of 110 played) — 1.82 per match at 22.5, economy 3.12, strike rate 43.3.
