Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 12.7 over 32 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

19 of 25 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.58 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 15.1.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.37.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 23 catches in 40 matches (0.58 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 75 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 55 × 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 14). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 14 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 23 catches + 4 run outs (2 direct, 2 assisted) in 40 matches — 0.68 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 32 innings at 12.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
54 wickets in 34 matches bowled in (of 40 played) — 1.59 per match at 15.1, economy 3.37, strike rate 26.9.
