Critical recommendations
high
Bowling
Conceding too many extras
0.8 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
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.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 43 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 49 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.31 for the level played (Rep Div 2 3 · Club 36). 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: 6 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 39 matches — 0.26 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 37 innings at 16.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 26 wickets in 33 matches bowled in (of 39 played) — 0.79 per match at 8.7, economy 2.72, strike rate 19.2.
