Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 56.0 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

19 of 36 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 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 (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.22 dismissals per match across 41 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 40% · Batting 43 × 30% · Bowling 51 × 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 19). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 19 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 8 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 41 matches — 0.22 per match.
Batting
763 runs in 45 innings, adjusted average 20.4, strike rate 56.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
10 wickets in 14 matches bowled in (of 41 played) — 0.24 per match at 27.2, economy 5.96, strike rate 27.4.
