Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 42.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

high Bowling
Economy under pressure

Going at 5.74 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).

high Fielding
Catching return too low for selection

Only 0.13 catches per match over 23 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.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 40% · Batting 31 × 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
×0.32 for the level played (Rep Div 1 1 · Club 22). 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: 2 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 23 matches — 0.09 per match.
Batting
294 runs in 18 innings, adjusted average 22.7, strike rate 42.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 7 wickets from 30.3 overs across 8 matches bowled in (of 23 played) — 0.30 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
