Critical recommendations

Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 58.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 23 catches in 59 matches (0.39 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 49 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 41 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.32 for the level played (Rep Div 2 16 · Club 43). 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: 23 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 59 matches — 0.47 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 52 innings at 19.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 34 wickets in 52 matches bowled in (of 59 played) — 0.65 per match at 21.2, economy 3.78, strike rate 33.7.
