Critical recommendations

high Fielding
Catching return too low for selection

Only 0.00 catches per match over 12 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 10.0.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.48.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 24 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 40% · Batting 46 × 30% · Bowling 62 × 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 5). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 5 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 0 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 12 matches — 0.17 per match.
Batting
206 runs in 10 innings, adjusted average 26.8, strike rate 71.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
25 wickets in 12 matches — 2.08 per match at 10.0, economy 2.48, strike rate 24.3.
