Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 13.1 over 37 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Bowling
Economy under pressure

Going at 6.25 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 23 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.32 for the level played (Rep Div 1 1 · Club 24). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 25 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 11 catches + 4 run outs (3 direct, 1 assisted) in 40 matches — 0.38 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 37 innings at 13.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
20 wickets in 39 matches bowled in (of 40 played) — 0.51 per match at 30.9, economy 6.25, strike rate 29.6.
