Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 61.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

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

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 34 × 40% · Batting 41 × 30% · Bowling 54 × 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 26). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 26 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 8 catches + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 29 matches — 0.38 per match.
Batting
387 runs in 22 innings, adjusted average 23.2, strike rate 61.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
30 wickets in 29 matches — 1.03 per match at 22.4, economy 3.90, strike rate 34.4.
