Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 63.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.59 is excellent but a wicket every 54 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.59.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 36 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.29 for the level played (Club 2 · 4th grade 13). 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: 3 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 15 matches — 0.27 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 8 innings at 17.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
13 wickets in 15 matches — 0.87 per match at 32.2, economy 3.59, strike rate 53.9.
