Critical recommendations

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

4 of 6 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.

high Fielding
Catching return too low for selection

Only 0.09 catches per match over 11 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

  • ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 50.1.
  • ✓ Scores quickly (SR 95.0) without sacrificing consistency.
  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 105.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.52.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 10 × 40% · Batting 80 × 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 11). 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: 1 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 11 matches — 0.09 per match.
Batting
358 runs in 10 innings, adjusted average 50.1, strike rate 95.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
9 wickets in 9 matches bowled in (of 11 played) — 1.00 per match at 19.6, economy 3.52, strike rate 33.3.
