Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 11.6 over 16 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 19% 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

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 8 catches in 17 matches (0.47 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 45 × 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 5). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 5 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Keeping: 5 catches + 3 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 17 matches — 0.47 dismissals per match.
Batting
Not rated: 16 innings at 11.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
