Critical recommendations

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

61 of 76 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.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (8 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 114 catches in 76 matches (1.50 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 13 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 94 × 40% · Batting 68 × 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
×0.81 for the level played (1st grade 40 · 2nd grade 1 · Club 3). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 44 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Keeping: 110 catches + 13 stumpings + 5 run outs (0 direct, 5 assisted) in 76 matches — 1.68 dismissals per match.
Batting
1,856 runs in 82 innings, adjusted average 24.3, strike rate 77.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
