Critical recommendations

high Fielding
Catching return too low for selection

Only 0.12 catches per match over 77 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
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.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.20.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 9 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 62 × 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 25). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 25 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 9 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 77 matches — 0.14 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 65 innings at 18.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
82 wickets in 66 matches bowled in (of 77 played) — 1.24 per match at 18.8, economy 3.20, strike rate 35.4.
