Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 35.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.7.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.56.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 40 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 52 × 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 24). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 24 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 19 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 58 matches — 0.34 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 53 innings at 24.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
75 wickets in 54 matches bowled in (of 58 played) — 1.39 per match at 15.7, economy 2.56, strike rate 36.7.
