Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 5.3 over 11 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

4 of 8 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 27% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.43 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.7.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 20 balls.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 6 catches in 14 matches (0.43 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 63 × 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 4). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 4 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 6 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 14 matches — 0.43 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 11 innings at 5.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
24 wickets in 14 matches — 1.71 per match at 13.7, economy 4.05, strike rate 20.3.
