Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 51.7 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (9 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.35 is excellent but a wicket every 41 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.51 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 103 catches in 201 matches (0.51 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 60 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 1 match since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 103 catches + 8 run outs (8 direct, 0 assisted) in 201 matches — 0.55 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 163 innings at 20.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 241 wickets from 1662.7 overs across 188 matches bowled in (of 201 played) — 1.28 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
