Critical recommendations

high Fielding
Catching return too low for selection

Only 0.06 catches per match over 18 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.

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

13 of 16 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 17% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 11 × 40% · Batting 51 × 30% · Bowling 55 × 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 18). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 18 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 1 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 18 matches — 0.11 per match.
Batting
387 runs in 18 innings, adjusted average 23.9, strike rate 69.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
18 wickets in 13 matches bowled in (of 18 played) — 1.38 per match at 20.6, economy 4.30, strike rate 28.7.
