Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 43.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

14 of 27 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.75 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 24 catches in 32 matches (0.75 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 48 × 40% · Batting 42 × 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
×0.54 for the level played (1st grade 1 · Rep Div 1 18 · 3rd grade 3 · Club 5 · 4th grade 5). 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
Keeping: 15 catches + 4 stumpings + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 32 matches — 0.62 dismissals per match.
Batting
523 runs in 32 innings, adjusted average 18.9, strike rate 43.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 2 wickets from 6.0 overs across 2 matches bowled in (of 32 played) — 0.06 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
