Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 62.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

8 of 10 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 17.9.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.26.
  • ✓ Reliable in the field — contributes a dismissal every second match.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 43 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 57 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.45 for the level played (Rep Div 1 6 · Club 13). 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: 6 catches + 4 run outs (1 direct, 3 assisted) in 19 matches — 0.53 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 15 innings at 18.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
15 wickets in 19 matches — 0.79 per match at 17.9, economy 3.26, strike rate 32.9.
