Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 55.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

high Fielding
Catching return too low for selection

Only 0.13 catches per match over 16 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.3.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.35.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 7 × 40% · Batting 41 × 30% · Bowling 65 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.47 for the level played (Rep Div 1 6 · Club 10). 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: 2 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 16 matches — 0.12 per match.
Batting
255 runs in 15 innings, adjusted average 22.7, strike rate 55.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
30 wickets in 15 matches bowled in (of 16 played) — 2.00 per match at 13.3, economy 2.35, strike rate 33.9.
