Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 64.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.97.
  • ✓ 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 28 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 54 × 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 23). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 23 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 16 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 46 matches — 0.39 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 39 innings at 15.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
73 wickets in 42 matches bowled in (of 46 played) — 1.74 per match at 18.3, economy 2.97, strike rate 36.9.
