Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 12.9 over 15 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

5 of 7 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.3.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.75.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 65 × 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 29). 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: 5 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 29 matches — 0.28 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 15 innings at 12.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
63 wickets in 27 matches bowled in (of 29 played) — 2.33 per match at 13.3, economy 2.75, strike rate 29.0.
