Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 56.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

28 of 55 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.

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

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 11 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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 33). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 33 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 15 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 61 matches — 0.25 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 60 innings at 15.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 14 wickets from 80.3 overs across 20 matches bowled in (of 61 played) — 0.23 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
