Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 14.9 over 23 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 13% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.46 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 12 catches in 26 matches (0.46 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 32 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 54 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.30 for the level played (Club 26). 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: 11 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 26 matches — 0.42 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 23 innings at 14.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
20 wickets in 25 matches bowled in (of 26 played) — 0.80 per match at 17.2, economy 4.06, strike rate 25.4.
