Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 61.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.41 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 45 catches in 111 matches (0.41 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 13 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 32 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.39 for the level played (Rep Div 1 8 · Club 33). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 41 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 35 catches + 9 run outs (5 direct, 4 assisted) in 111 matches — 0.40 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 95 innings at 16.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 34 wickets in 55 matches bowled in (of 111 played) — 0.62 per match at 26.6, economy 5.12, strike rate 31.2.
