Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 10.5 over 12 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

5 of 10 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 17% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 2.31 is excellent but a wicket every 52 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.18 dismissals per match across 11 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.31.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 12 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 51 × 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 11). 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: 2 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 11 matches — 0.18 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 12 innings at 10.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
9 wickets in 9 matches bowled in (of 11 played) — 1.00 per match at 20.0, economy 2.31, strike rate 52.0.
