Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 41.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.42 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 15 catches in 36 matches (0.42 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting 32 × 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
- ×0.31 for the level played (Rep Div 1 1 · Club 35). 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: 15 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 36 matches — 0.42 per match.
- Batting
- 614 runs in 35 innings, adjusted average 20.1, strike rate 41.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 4 wickets from 15.0 overs across 5 matches bowled in (of 36 played) — 0.11 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
