Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 12.2 over 67 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

21 of 41 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.

high Fielding
Catching return too low for selection

Only 0.13 catches per match over 105 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 15% 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 16.5.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.65.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 61 × 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 (1st grade 1 · Club 104). 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: 13 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 105 matches — 0.12 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 67 innings at 12.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
114 wickets in 102 matches bowled in (of 105 played) — 1.12 per match at 16.5, economy 2.65, strike rate 37.3.
