Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 42.2 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 13% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 92 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.38 for the level played (2nd grade 20 · 3rd grade 3 · Club 39). 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
Keeping: 81 catches + 14 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 62 matches — 1.53 dismissals per match.
Batting
Not rated: 53 innings at 17.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
