Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 8.4 over 55 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

20 of 39 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 0.08 catches per match over 59 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.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 13 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 29 × 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 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: 5 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 59 matches — 0.08 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 55 innings at 8.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
20 wickets in 49 matches bowled in (of 59 played) — 0.41 per match at 30.7, economy 4.24, strike rate 43.5.
