Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 13.9 over 16 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

10 of 14 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 31% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Batting
Boundary-or-block scoring pattern

81% of runs come in boundaries yet the strike rate is modest — between boundaries the scoreboard stalls. Add strike rotation to keep bowlers from settling.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.17 dismissals per match across 18 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 8 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 41 × 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 11). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 11 matches since 2 Nov 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: 16 innings at 13.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
15 wickets in 17 matches bowled in (of 18 played) — 0.88 per match at 31.7, economy 5.16, strike rate 36.8.
