Critical recommendations

high Fielding
Catching return too low for selection

Only 0.14 catches per match over 65 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
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 14% 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 10 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 38 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.61 for the level played (Rep Div 1 12 · 2nd grade 20 · 3rd grade 10). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 42 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 9 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 65 matches — 0.17 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 57 innings at 20.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
41 wickets in 49 matches bowled in (of 65 played) — 0.84 per match at 28.5, economy 4.87, strike rate 35.1.
