Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 60.9 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 0.14 catches per match over 133 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.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 11 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 65 × 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 40). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 40 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 18 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 133 matches — 0.15 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 114 innings at 17.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
89 wickets in 91 matches bowled in (of 133 played) — 0.98 per match at 19.0, economy 4.49, strike rate 25.4.
