Critical recommendations

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

23 of 31 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.18 dismissals per match across 45 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Scores quickly (SR 93.0) without sacrificing consistency.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 18 × 40% · Batting 58 × 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 30). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 30 matches since 30 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 45 matches — 0.18 per match.
Batting
879 runs in 42 innings, adjusted average 26.4, strike rate 93.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 5 wickets from 14.5 overs across 7 matches bowled in (of 45 played) — 0.11 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
