Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 10.4 over 33 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

13 of 26 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 Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 12% 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 18.0.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.10.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 66 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.85 for the level played (1st grade 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: 10 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 44 matches — 0.30 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 33 innings at 10.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
29 wickets in 29 matches bowled in (of 44 played) — 1.00 per match at 18.0, economy 3.10, strike rate 34.7.
