Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 9.9 over 19 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 10% 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 18 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 28 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.83 for the level played (1st grade 23 · 2nd 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: 7 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 24 matches — 0.33 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 19 innings at 9.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
25 wickets in 24 matches — 1.04 per match at 34.4, economy 4.09, strike rate 50.5.
