Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 43.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 17 × 40% · Batting 41 × 30% · 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 15). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 15 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 4 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 23 matches — 0.22 per match.
Batting
390 runs in 22 innings, adjusted average 17.7, strike rate 43.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
