Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 57.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 14 × 40% · Batting 57 × 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
×0.30 for the level played (Club 6). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 6 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 6 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 19 matches — 0.42 per match.
Batting
288 runs in 16 innings, adjusted average 23.6, strike rate 57.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 6 wickets from 35.8 overs across 12 matches bowled in (of 19 played) — 0.50 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
