Critical recommendations
medium
Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.9.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.61.
- ✓ Safe hands — 16 catches in 46 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 40% · Batting 57 × 30% · Bowling 58 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.52 for the level played (Rep Div 1 16 · Club 19). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 35 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 16 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 46 matches — 0.39 per match.
- Batting
- 664 runs in 34 innings, adjusted average 24.7, strike rate 78.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 41 wickets in 41 matches bowled in (of 46 played) — 1.00 per match at 17.9, economy 3.61, strike rate 29.7.
