Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 14.8 over 22 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 2.91 is excellent but a wicket every 41 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.91.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 51 × 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 34). 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: 10 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 34 matches — 0.32 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 22 innings at 14.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
36 wickets in 31 matches bowled in (of 34 played) — 1.16 per match at 20.0, economy 2.91, strike rate 41.2.
