Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 13.3 over 73 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

46 of 62 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 16% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.0.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.55.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 22 balls.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 27 catches in 78 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 61 × 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 78). 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: 27 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 78 matches — 0.41 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 73 innings at 13.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
56 wickets in 39 matches bowled in (of 78 played) — 1.44 per match at 13.0, economy 3.55, strike rate 21.9.
