Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 64.9 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 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 34 × 40% · Batting 44 × 30% · Bowling 53 × 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 20). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 20 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.

Outfield: 129 catches + 10 run outs (9 direct, 1 assisted) in 324 matches — 0.43 per match.
Batting
2,572 runs in 217 innings, adjusted average 15.7, strike rate 64.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
385 wickets in 252 matches bowled in (of 324 played) — 1.53 per match at 17.4, economy 4.18, strike rate 24.9.
