Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 52.4 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

4 of 8 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.

high Bowling
Conceding too many extras

0.8 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.

high Fielding
Catching return too low for selection

Only 0.13 catches per match over 15 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 15% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 56 × 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 15). 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: 2 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 15 matches — 0.13 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 13 innings at 17.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
11 wickets in 13 matches bowled in (of 15 played) — 0.85 per match at 19.3, economy 4.04, strike rate 28.6.
