Critical recommendations
0.8 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
Only 0.12 catches per match over 25 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.
20 of 24 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 35.1.
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 109.7) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 149.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.9.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 22 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting 91 × 30% · Bowling 64 × 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 19). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 19 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 3 catches + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 25 matches — 0.24 per match.
- Batting
- 845 runs in 25 innings, adjusted average 35.2, strike rate 109.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 22 wickets in 17 matches bowled in (of 25 played) — 1.29 per match at 18.0, economy 4.95, strike rate 21.8.
