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.

info Fielding

0.62 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.3.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.08.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 18 catches in 29 matches (0.62 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 45 × 40% · Batting 57 × 30% · Bowling 51 × 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 15). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 15 matches since 2 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 18 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 29 matches — 0.62 per match.
Batting
613 runs in 29 innings, adjusted average 24.1, strike rate 60.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
30 wickets in 21 matches bowled in (of 29 played) — 1.43 per match at 15.3, economy 3.08, strike rate 29.7.
