Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 62.4 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 0.12 catches per match over 17 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

5 of 7 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.8.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.69.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 13 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 64 × 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 17). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 17 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 2 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 17 matches — 0.18 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 10 innings at 16.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
23 wickets in 17 matches — 1.35 per match at 13.8, economy 2.69, strike rate 30.8.
