Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 55.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

11 of 20 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.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 19% 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 27 × 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
×0.40 for the level played (Rep Div 1 6 · Club 31). 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: 6 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 37 matches — 0.27 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 26 innings at 15.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 2 wickets from 18.7 overs across 10 matches bowled in (of 37 played) — 0.05 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
