Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 45.4 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

7 of 9 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.

info Fielding

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.73.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 19 balls.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 9 catches in 18 matches (0.50 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 56 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 64 × 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 18). 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: 6 catches + 2 run outs (0 direct, 2 assisted) in 18 matches — 0.44 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 13 innings at 28.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
12 wickets in 7 matches bowled in (of 18 played) — 0.67 per match at 11.9, economy 3.73, strike rate 19.2.
