Critical recommendations
medium
Batting
Too many aerial dismissals
69 of 98 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 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 94.6) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 3 hundred(s), best of 142.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting 78 × 30% · Bowling 23 × 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 40). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 27 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 111 matches — 0.26 per match.
- Batting
- 2,179 runs in 107 innings, adjusted average 22.1, strike rate 94.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 51 wickets in 64 matches bowled in (of 111 played) — 0.80 per match at 25.7, economy 4.62, strike rate 33.4.
