Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 14.2 over 27 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

17 of 24 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 15% 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

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.9.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.08.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 12 catches in 28 matches (0.43 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 44 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 69 × 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 28). 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 (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 28 matches — 0.46 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 27 innings at 14.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
54 wickets in 25 matches bowled in (of 28 played) — 2.16 per match at 13.9, economy 3.08, strike rate 27.1.
