Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 58.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.48 is excellent but a wicket every 47 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 35 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.42 for the level played (Rep Div 1 9 · Club 18). 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: 9 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 27 matches — 0.37 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 25 innings at 19.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
13 wickets in 18 matches bowled in (of 27 played) — 0.72 per match at 27.5, economy 3.48, strike rate 47.3.
