Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 41.7 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 7% of 50+ scores become hundreds (14 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

info Fielding

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 66 × 40% · Batting 41 × 30% · Bowling 45 × 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 74). 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
Keeping: 53 catches + 9 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 74 matches — 0.84 dismissals per match.
