Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 11.3 over 32 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 19% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 44 × 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 36). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 36 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 12 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 52 matches — 0.27 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 32 innings at 11.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
48 wickets in 48 matches bowled in (of 52 played) — 1.00 per match at 29.3, economy 5.13, strike rate 34.2.
