Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 45.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 81 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.51 for the level played (Rep Div 1 4 · Club 5). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 9 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Keeping: 8 catches + 8 stumpings + 3 run outs (0 direct, 3 assisted) in 19 matches — 1.00 dismissals per match.
Batting
Not rated: 14 innings at 15.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
