Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 10.3 over 36 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

24 of 33 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.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 17 catches in 41 matches (0.41 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 54 × 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 41). 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: 14 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 41 matches — 0.37 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 36 innings at 10.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
35 wickets in 24 matches bowled in (of 41 played) — 1.46 per match at 18.4, economy 4.14, strike rate 26.6.
