Critical recommendations

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

5 of 6 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 6 catches in 11 matches (0.55 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 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 4). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 4 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 6 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 11 matches — 0.55 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 8 innings at 17.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 17 wickets from 53.0 overs across 10 matches bowled in (of 11 played) — 1.70 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
