Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 49.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (8 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 67 catches in 156 matches (0.43 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting 61 × 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
×0.30 for the level played (Club 2). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 2 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 64 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 156 matches — 0.44 per match.
Batting
2,290 runs in 154 innings, adjusted average 16.1, strike rate 49.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 52 wickets from 271.3 overs across 71 matches bowled in (of 156 played) — 0.73 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
