Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 58.7 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 13% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 27 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 43 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.73 for the level played (1st grade 89 · Rep Div 1 35 · 2nd grade 14 · 3rd grade 2 · Club 22). 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: 50 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 162 matches — 0.33 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 139 innings at 15.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
145 wickets in 123 matches bowled in (of 162 played) — 1.18 per match at 27.4, economy 4.44, strike rate 37.0.
