Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 13.5 over 35 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

24 of 31 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 17% 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 13.9.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.84.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 17 catches in 44 matches (0.39 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 31 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 65 × 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 44). 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: 17 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 44 matches — 0.41 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 35 innings at 13.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
76 wickets in 41 matches bowled in (of 44 played) — 1.85 per match at 13.9, economy 2.84, strike rate 29.4.
