Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 13.6 over 9 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

6 of 8 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 11% 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 3.38 is excellent but a wicket every 66 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 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
×0.72 for the level played (Rep Div 1 6 · Club 2). 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: 0 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 8 matches — 0.12 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 9 innings at 13.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 2 wickets from 22.2 overs across 6 matches bowled in (of 8 played) — 0.33 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
