Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 10.6 over 20 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

9 of 18 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.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.6.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.67.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 10 catches in 28 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 36 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 62 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.65 for the level played (1st grade 6 · 2nd grade 22). 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: 10 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 28 matches — 0.46 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 20 innings at 10.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
25 wickets in 25 matches bowled in (of 28 played) — 1.00 per match at 16.6, economy 3.67, strike rate 27.2.
