Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 5.9 over 20 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 30% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.19 dismissals per match across 31 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 7 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 49 × 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 (Rep Div 1 2 · Club 22 · 4th grade 1 · 5th grade and below 6). 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: 6 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 31 matches — 0.19 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 20 innings at 5.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
25 wickets in 29 matches bowled in (of 31 played) — 0.86 per match at 28.1, economy 4.20, strike rate 40.1.
