Critical recommendations
Only 0.08 catches per match over 12 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
5 of 6 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Out for 0 in 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 3.72 is excellent but a wicket every 41 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 33.0.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.72.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 40% · Batting 61 × 30% · Bowling 49 × 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 12). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 12 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 1 catches + 3 run outs (0 direct, 3 assisted) in 12 matches — 0.33 per match.
- Batting
- 223 runs in 9 innings, adjusted average 33.0, strike rate 83.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 9 wickets in 11 matches bowled in (of 12 played) — 0.82 per match at 25.2, economy 3.72, strike rate 40.7.
