Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 41.8 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
0.56 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 27 matches (0.56 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 18 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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
- ×0.29 for the level played (Club 27). 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
- Keeping: 10 catches + 1 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 27 matches — 0.41 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 27 innings at 24.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 5 wickets from 33.0 overs across 17 matches bowled in (of 27 played) — 0.19 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
