Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 56.2 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

high Bowling
Conceding too many extras

1.6 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 Bowling
Economy under pressure

Going at 10.78 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).

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

  • ✓ Safe hands — 9 catches in 18 matches (0.50 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 40% · Batting 39 × 30% · Bowling 22 × 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 16). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 16 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 5 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 18 matches — 0.33 per match.
Batting
267 runs in 16 innings, adjusted average 19.8, strike rate 56.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
7 wickets in 9 matches bowled in (of 18 played) — 0.78 per match at 48.0, economy 10.78, strike rate 26.7.
