Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 12.6 over 91 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

46 of 76 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 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Fielding
Keeping dismissal rate below par

0.20 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.

Strengths

  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 12 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 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
×0.46 for the level played (2nd grade 13 · Club 12). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 25 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 24 catches + 8 run outs (3 direct, 5 assisted) in 122 matches — 0.26 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 91 innings at 12.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 10 wickets from 80.7 overs across 23 matches bowled in (of 122 played) — 0.08 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
