Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 13.6 over 54 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.50 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 29 catches in 58 matches (0.50 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 16 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 57 × 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 58). 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
Keeping: 29 catches + 16 stumpings + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 58 matches — 0.79 dismissals per match.
Batting
Not rated: 54 innings at 13.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 1 wicket from 7.0 overs across 2 matches bowled in (of 58 played) — 0.02 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
