Critical recommendations

Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 9.2 over 10 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

Batting
Boundary-or-block scoring pattern
86% of runs come in boundaries yet the strike rate is modest — between boundaries the scoreboard stalls. Add strike rotation to keep bowlers from settling.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 9.2.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.18.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 71 × 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 9). 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 9 matches — 0.00 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 10 innings at 9.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 16 wickets in 6 matches bowled in (of 9 played) — 2.67 per match at 9.3, economy 2.18, strike rate 25.4.
