Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 13.9 over 14 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

9 of 13 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 Fielding
Keeping dismissal rate below par

0.22 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 7 catches in 18 matches (0.39 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 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 7). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 7 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 3 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 18 matches — 0.17 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 14 innings at 13.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
