Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 11.9 over 71 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 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
×0.66 for the level played (State competition 5 · Rep Div 1 46 · Rep Div 2 6 · Club 23). 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 + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 80 matches — 0.16 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 71 innings at 11.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 9 wickets from 60.0 overs across 18 matches bowled in (of 80 played) — 0.11 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
