Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 57.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.0.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 24 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting 44 × 30% · Bowling 65 × 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 33). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 33 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 28 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 85 matches — 0.34 per match.
Batting
1,492 runs in 83 innings, adjusted average 24.0, strike rate 57.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
54 wickets in 54 matches bowled in (of 85 played) — 1.00 per match at 16.0, economy 3.98, strike rate 24.1.
