Critical recommendations

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (7 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.24 dismissals per match across 59 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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 59). 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: 13 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 59 matches — 0.24 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 54 innings at 18.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 10 wickets from 26.0 overs across 9 matches bowled in (of 59 played) — 0.17 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
