Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 50.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

36 of 51 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 2.79 is excellent but a wicket every 48 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.79.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 27 catches in 76 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 11 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 63 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.37 for the level played (3rd grade 9 · Club 7). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 16 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 27 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 76 matches — 0.36 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 67 innings at 17.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
83 wickets in 69 matches bowled in (of 76 played) — 1.20 per match at 22.4, economy 2.79, strike rate 48.1.
