Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 47.8 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 128.
- ✓ Safe hands — 24 catches in 67 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting 51 × 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
- ×0.58 for the level played (1st grade 4 · 2nd grade 25 · Club 5). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 34 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 23 catches + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 67 matches — 0.39 per match.
- Batting
- 1,381 runs in 71 innings, adjusted average 21.6, strike rate 47.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 0 wickets from 2.0 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 67 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
