Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 55.2 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 13% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (7 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 54 × 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 24). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 24 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 43 catches + 8 run outs (8 direct, 0 assisted) in 154 matches — 0.33 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 137 innings at 15.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
64 wickets in 83 matches bowled in (of 154 played) — 0.77 per match at 25.1, economy 4.29, strike rate 35.2.
