Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 14.9 over 11 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

5 of 9 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.

info Fielding

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.6.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.15.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 12 catches in 19 matches (0.63 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 64 × 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 4). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 4 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 12 catches + 3 run outs (0 direct, 3 assisted) in 19 matches — 0.79 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 11 innings at 14.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
26 wickets in 19 matches — 1.37 per match at 15.6, economy 3.15, strike rate 29.7.
