Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 37.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

high Fielding
Catching return too low for selection

Only 0.07 catches per match over 42 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.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 24% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.50.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 4 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 55 × 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 39 · 4th grade 3). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
Fielding
Outfield: 3 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 42 matches — 0.10 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 29 innings at 15.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
35 wickets in 38 matches bowled in (of 42 played) — 0.92 per match at 20.7, economy 3.50, strike rate 35.5.
