Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 58.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

15 of 21 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 12.1.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 17 balls.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 12 catches in 30 matches (0.40 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 43 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 65 × 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 30). 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: 7 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 30 matches — 0.40 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 29 innings at 16.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
32 wickets in 30 matches — 1.07 per match at 12.1, economy 4.21, strike rate 17.3.
