Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 11.9 over 35 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

23 of 32 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.40 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 19 catches in 48 matches (0.40 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 31 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 54 × 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 48). 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: 19 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 48 matches — 0.42 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 35 innings at 11.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
33 wickets in 32 matches bowled in (of 48 played) — 1.03 per match at 21.9, economy 4.58, strike rate 28.7.
