Critical recommendations
2 of 4 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.
Economy of 2.67 is excellent but a wicket every 82 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Only 4 batting innings imported — import more of this player's matches before treating these findings as conclusive.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.67.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 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 (2nd grade 1 · Club 3 · 4th grade 1). 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: 1 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 5 matches — 0.20 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 4 innings at 7.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 4 wickets in 5 matches — 0.80 per match at 36.8, economy 2.67, strike rate 82.5.
