Critical recommendations

high Fielding
Catching return too low for selection

Only 0.13 catches per match over 30 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 159.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.36.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 12 × 40% · Batting 72 × 30% · Bowling 58 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.73 for the level played (Rep Div 1 25 · Club 5). 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: 4 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 30 matches — 0.13 per match.
Batting
394 runs in 21 innings, adjusted average 23.2, strike rate 79.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
20 wickets in 23 matches bowled in (of 30 played) — 0.87 per match at 20.4, economy 3.36, strike rate 36.4.
