Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 53.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

14 of 18 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.12 is excellent but a wicket every 41 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.56 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.12.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 10 catches in 18 matches (0.56 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 47 × 40% · Batting 45 × 30% · Bowling 50 × 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
Rated on the last 18 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 10 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 18 matches — 0.56 per match.
Batting
432 runs in 18 innings, adjusted average 24.0, strike rate 53.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
24 wickets in 18 matches — 1.33 per match at 21.3, economy 3.12, strike rate 41.1.
