Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 57.2 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

Strengths

  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 15 run outs.
  • ✓ Reliable in the field — contributes a dismissal every second match.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 34 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 52 × 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 40). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 40 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 19 catches + 15 run outs (6 direct, 9 assisted) in 71 matches — 0.48 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 69 innings at 15.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
47 wickets in 67 matches bowled in (of 71 played) — 0.70 per match at 15.5, economy 4.38, strike rate 21.2.
