Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 55.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 13% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 68 × 40% · Batting 71 × 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
×0.30 for the level played (Club 17). 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: 12 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 17 matches — 0.76 per match.
Batting
399 runs in 15 innings, adjusted average 35.5, strike rate 55.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 2 wickets from 17.0 overs across 3 matches bowled in (of 17 played) — 0.12 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
