Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 14.9 over 26 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

15 of 21 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 2.76 is excellent but a wicket every 44 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.76.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 26 catches in 27 matches (0.96 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 78 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 55 × 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 27). 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: 26 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 27 matches — 1.11 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 26 innings at 15.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
38 wickets in 27 matches — 1.41 per match at 20.3, economy 2.76, strike rate 44.2.
