Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 32.2 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

12 of 23 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.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.66.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 16 catches in 46 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 50 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.29 for the level played (Club 35 · 5th grade and below 5). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 40 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 16 catches + 2 run outs (0 direct, 2 assisted) in 46 matches — 0.39 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 32 innings at 17.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
54 wickets in 43 matches bowled in (of 46 played) — 1.26 per match at 23.1, economy 3.66, strike rate 37.8.
