Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 47.9 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
0.54 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 28 catches in 52 matches (0.54 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 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
- ×0.35 for the level played (Rep Div 1 7 · Club 45). 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: 23 catches + 4 stumpings + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 52 matches — 0.56 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 44 innings at 18.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 3 wickets from 25.0 overs across 7 matches bowled in (of 52 played) — 0.06 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
