Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 64.8 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 0.04 catches per match over 26 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.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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 26). 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: 1 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 26 matches — 0.04 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 24 innings at 16.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 21 wickets from 64.0 overs across 22 matches bowled in (of 26 played) — 0.95 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
