Critical recommendations

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

5 of 9 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 Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 2.79 is excellent but a wicket every 50 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 11 catches in 14 matches (0.79 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 61 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 1 match since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 10 catches + 2 run outs (0 direct, 2 assisted) in 14 matches — 0.86 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 10 innings at 31.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 15 wickets from 123.8 overs across 13 matches bowled in (of 14 played) — 1.15 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
