Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 42.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 17 × 40% · Batting 42 × 30% · Bowling 20 × 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 29). 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: 7 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 29 matches — 0.28 per match.
Batting
557 runs in 26 innings, adjusted average 23.1, strike rate 42.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
6 wickets in 12 matches bowled in (of 29 played) — 0.50 per match at 39.8, economy 5.14, strike rate 46.5.
