Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 14.0 over 79 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

40 of 75 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.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 20% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 24 balls.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 44 catches in 73 matches (0.60 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 40 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 62 × 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 73). 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: 44 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 73 matches — 0.60 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 79 innings at 14.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
31 wickets in 26 matches bowled in (of 73 played) — 0.42 per match at 18.3, economy 4.49, strike rate 24.4.
