Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 57.4 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 0.13 catches per match over 56 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
Too many aerial dismissals

35 of 47 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.2.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.20.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 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 56). 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: 7 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 56 matches — 0.14 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 54 innings at 22.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
42 wickets in 34 matches bowled in (of 56 played) — 1.24 per match at 15.2, economy 3.20, strike rate 28.5.
