Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 41.5 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

5 of 8 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 Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 2.71 is excellent but a wicket every 47 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.55 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.71.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 6 catches in 11 matches (0.55 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 61 × 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 7). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 7 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 6 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 11 matches — 0.64 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 10 innings at 17.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
11 wickets in 9 matches bowled in (of 11 played) — 1.22 per match at 21.2, economy 2.71, strike rate 46.9.
