Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball
5 of 7 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Strengths
- ✓ Reliable in the field — contributes a dismissal every second match.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 51 × 40% · Batting 40 × 30% · Bowling 44 × 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 18). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 18 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 6 catches + 5 run outs (2 direct, 3 assisted) in 20 matches — 0.55 per match.
- Batting
- 227 runs in 17 innings, adjusted average 21.2, strike rate 67.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 12 wickets in 18 matches bowled in (of 20 played) — 0.67 per match at 28.8, economy 4.31, strike rate 40.0.
