Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 56.4 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 12% 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 52 × 40% · Batting 65 × 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 9). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 9 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 18 catches + 4 run outs (3 direct, 1 assisted) in 65 matches — 0.34 per match.
Batting
1,623 runs in 61 innings, adjusted average 30.5, strike rate 56.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
