Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 54.4 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

high Fielding
Catching return too low for selection

Only 0.11 catches per match over 18 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

13 of 17 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 17% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (5 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 16 × 40% · Batting 54 × 30% · Bowling 41 × 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 16). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 16 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 2 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 18 matches — 0.22 per match.
Batting
463 runs in 18 innings, adjusted average 27.2, strike rate 54.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
6 wickets in 11 matches bowled in (of 18 played) — 0.55 per match at 24.2, economy 4.39, strike rate 33.0.
