Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 8.5 over 18 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

6 of 11 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 28% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.2.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.27.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 68 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.61 for the level played (1st grade 1 · Rep Div 1 20 · Club 11). 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: 7 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 32 matches — 0.25 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 18 innings at 8.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
50 wickets in 32 matches — 1.56 per match at 14.2, economy 3.27, strike rate 26.0.
