Critical recommendations
8 of 11 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
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.
0.21 dismissals per match across 14 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 37.4.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 12 × 40% · Batting 59 × 30% · 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
- ×0.64 for the level played (1st grade 2 · 2nd grade 12). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 3 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 14 matches — 0.21 per match.
- Batting
- 431 runs in 14 innings, adjusted average 37.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
