Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 53.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 2.60 is excellent but a wicket every 43 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.60.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 30 catches in 60 matches (0.50 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 54 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 47 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.21 for the level played (4th grade 4 · 5th grade and below 28). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 32 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 30 catches + 4 run outs (0 direct, 4 assisted) in 60 matches — 0.57 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 39 innings at 17.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
93 wickets in 58 matches bowled in (of 60 played) — 1.60 per match at 18.6, economy 2.60, strike rate 42.9.
