Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 60.2 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

high Fielding
Catching return too low for selection

Only 0.11 catches per match over 18 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 34 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 48 × 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 18). 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: 2 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 18 matches — 0.33 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 16 innings at 16.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
9 wickets in 11 matches bowled in (of 18 played) — 0.82 per match at 28.6, economy 4.43, strike rate 38.7.
