Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 64.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

19 of 25 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 40% · Batting 45 × 30% · 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
×0.44 for the level played (1st grade 6 · Club 25). 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 + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 31 matches — 0.29 per match.
Batting
697 runs in 31 innings, adjusted average 26.8, strike rate 64.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 18 wickets from 65.5 overs across 14 matches bowled in (of 31 played) — 1.29 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
