Critical recommendations

high Fielding
Catching return too low for selection

Only 0.12 catches per match over 26 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 12 × 40% · Batting 39 × 30% · Bowling 46 × 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 21). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 21 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 3 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 26 matches — 0.15 per match.
Batting
137 runs in 10 innings, adjusted average 20.6, strike rate 69.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
33 wickets in 26 matches — 1.27 per match at 22.3, economy 5.06, strike rate 26.5.
