Critical recommendations

Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 64.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.76.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 59 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.46 for the level played (1st grade 19 · 2nd grade 3 · Club 13). 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: 10 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 35 matches — 0.31 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 21 innings at 19.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 59 wickets in 33 matches bowled in (of 35 played) — 1.79 per match at 21.4, economy 3.76, strike rate 34.1.
