Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 12.8 over 23 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 13% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 2.98 is excellent but a wicket every 52 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.98.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 12 catches in 26 matches (0.46 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 51 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.33 for the level played (3rd grade 16 · 4th grade 10). 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: 12 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 26 matches — 0.46 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 23 innings at 12.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
16 wickets in 19 matches bowled in (of 26 played) — 0.84 per match at 25.8, economy 2.98, strike rate 51.9.
