Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 57.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (7 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 34 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 30 × 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 40). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 40 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 25 catches + 7 run outs (3 direct, 4 assisted) in 95 matches — 0.34 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 90 innings at 16.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
35 wickets in 36 matches bowled in (of 95 played) — 0.37 per match at 24.2, economy 5.04, strike rate 28.8.
