Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 38.8 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.43 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 12.7.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.34.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 10 catches in 23 matches (0.43 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 58 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.45 for the level played (Rep Div 1 13 · 3rd grade 3 · 4th grade 7). 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: 10 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 23 matches — 0.48 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 21 innings at 18.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
24 wickets in 21 matches bowled in (of 23 played) — 1.14 per match at 12.7, economy 2.34, strike rate 32.6.
