Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 14.9 over 12 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

6 of 8 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 12.6.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.53.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 21 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 40% · Batting 33 × 30% · Bowling 64 × 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 15). 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: 4 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 15 matches — 0.27 per match.
Batting
134 runs in 12 innings, adjusted average 14.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
24 wickets in 13 matches bowled in (of 15 played) — 1.85 per match at 12.6, economy 3.53, strike rate 21.4.
