Critical recommendations

Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 55.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 45 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.48 for the level played (Rep Div 1 4 · Club 5 · 5th grade and below 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 10 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 15 catches + 5 run outs (3 direct, 2 assisted) in 62 matches — 0.32 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 35 innings at 17.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 40 wickets in 55 matches bowled in (of 62 played) — 0.73 per match at 23.9, economy 4.27, strike rate 33.6.
