Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 14.8 over 52 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 17% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Strengths

  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 7 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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 54). 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: 10 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 54 matches — 0.20 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 52 innings at 14.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 0 wickets from 1.2 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 54 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
