Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 60.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.19 dismissals per match across 31 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 13 × 40% · Batting 42 × 30% · Bowling 35 × 30%. 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 31). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 31 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 4 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 31 matches — 0.16 per match.
Batting
424 runs in 29 innings, adjusted average 22.2, strike rate 60.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
11 wickets in 20 matches bowled in (of 31 played) — 0.55 per match at 26.5, economy 4.41, strike rate 36.0.
