Critical recommendations

Bowling
Conceding too many extras
1.0 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 18 catches in 48 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 57 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.39 for the level played (Rep Div 1 6 · Club 25). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 31 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 16 catches + 4 run outs (1 direct, 3 assisted) in 48 matches — 0.42 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 46 innings at 15.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 34 wickets in 46 matches bowled in (of 48 played) — 0.74 per match at 12.6, economy 3.80, strike rate 19.9.
