medium
Batting
Too many aerial dismissals
31 of 43 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.59 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 40.4.
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 123.9) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 5 hundred(s), best of 139.
- ✓ Safe hands — 23 catches in 39 matches (0.59 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 55 × 40% · Batting 92 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 23). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 23 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 19 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 39 matches — 0.51 per match.
- Batting
- 1,750 runs in 47 innings, adjusted average 40.4, strike rate 123.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 5 wickets from 29.0 overs across 9 matches bowled in (of 39 played) — 0.13 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
