Critical recommendations

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (6 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 54 catches in 60 matches (0.90 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 9 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 55 × 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
×0.30 for the level played (Club 60). 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: 52 catches + 9 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 60 matches — 1.02 dismissals per match.
Batting
Not rated: 59 innings at 21.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 0 wickets from 1.0 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 60 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
