Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 50.2 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 3.20 is excellent but a wicket every 58 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.20.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 8 catches in 21 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 56 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 26 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.78 for the level played (Rep Div 1 9). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 9 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 8 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 21 matches — 0.48 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 19 innings at 16.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
24 wickets in 21 matches — 1.14 per match at 31.0, economy 3.20, strike rate 58.1.
