Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 55.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
medium
Fielding
Low overall fielding impact
0.19 dismissals per match across 107 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 8 × 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
- ×0.41 for the level played (Rep Div 1 10 · Club 34). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 44 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 14 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 107 matches — 0.14 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 108 innings at 18.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 2 wickets from 11.5 overs across 6 matches bowled in (of 107 played) — 0.02 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
