Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 61.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Fielding
Keeping dismissal rate below par

0.19 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 25 × 40% · Batting 42 × 30% · 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
×0.30 for the level played (Club 16). 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
Keeping: 3 catches + 2 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 26 matches — 0.19 dismissals per match.
Batting
335 runs in 25 innings, adjusted average 17.2, strike rate 61.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
