Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 61.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

22 of 41 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 19% 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 35 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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
×0.30 for the level played (Club 23). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 23 matches since 2 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 11 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 41 matches — 0.32 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 47 innings at 15.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
