Critical recommendations
highBatting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 60.7 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 42 × 40% · Batting 68 × 30% · Bowling 22 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.41 for the level played (Rep Div 1 7 · 2nd grade 1 · 3rd grade 6 · Club 19 · 4th grade 7). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 40 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 28 catches + 4 run outs (0 direct, 4 assisted) in 86 matches — 0.37 per match.
Batting
1,449 runs in 76 innings, adjusted average 21.8, strike rate 60.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
28 wickets in 29 matches bowled in (of 86 played) — 0.33 per match at 20.8, economy 4.50, strike rate 27.8.
