Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 63.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 8 catches in 8 matches (1.00 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 62 × 40% · Batting 41 × 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 6). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 6 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 8 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 8 matches — 1.00 per match.
- Batting
- 110 runs in 7 innings, adjusted average 20.2, strike rate 63.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 0 wickets from 3.0 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 8 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
