Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 55.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (6 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 21 catches in 44 matches (0.48 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 52 × 40% · Batting 45 × 30% · Bowling 48 × 30%. 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 17). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 17 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 19 catches + 5 run outs (1 direct, 4 assisted) in 44 matches — 0.55 per match.
Batting
898 runs in 43 innings, adjusted average 26.7, strike rate 55.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
40 wickets in 34 matches bowled in (of 44 played) — 1.18 per match at 21.8, economy 4.25, strike rate 30.7.
