Critical recommendations

high Bowling
Economy under pressure

Going at 6.08 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).

info General
Small sample size

Only 3 batting innings imported — import more of this player's matches before treating these findings as conclusive.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 30 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×1.00 for the level played (National competition 5). 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: 1 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 5 matches — 0.20 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 3 innings at 6.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
4 wickets in 5 matches — 0.80 per match at 60.8, economy 6.08, strike rate 60.0.
