Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 63.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 10% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.21 dismissals per match across 28 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 8 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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 28). 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: 5 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 28 matches — 0.21 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 29 innings at 19.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 6 wickets from 32.8 overs across 9 matches bowled in (of 28 played) — 0.21 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
