Critical recommendations
Going at 6.26 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
4 of 5 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Bowling average (59.5) beats batting average (30.5) — selection case is as a bowling all-rounder; protect bowling workload first.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 30.5.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting 49 × 30% · 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
- ×0.32 for the level played (Rep Div 1 1 · Club 4). 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 + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 5 matches — 0.00 per match.
- Batting
- 157 runs in 6 innings, adjusted average 30.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 2 wickets from 19.0 overs across 3 matches bowled in (of 5 played) — 0.40 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
