Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 49.8 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 15% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 48 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 22 × 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 7). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 7 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 6 catches + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 19 matches — 0.47 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 20 innings at 15.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
20 wickets in 16 matches bowled in (of 19 played) — 1.25 per match at 24.2, economy 4.39, strike rate 33.1.
