Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 8.7 over 61 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

25 of 43 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.

high Fielding
Catching return too low for selection

Only 0.10 catches per match over 118 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 23% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.65 is excellent but a wicket every 42 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.65.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 8 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 52 × 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 34). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 34 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 12 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 118 matches — 0.11 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 61 innings at 8.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
105 wickets in 113 matches bowled in (of 118 played) — 0.93 per match at 25.7, economy 3.65, strike rate 42.3.
