Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 57.3 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 20% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Fielding
Keeping dismissal rate below par

0.40 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 22 catches in 42 matches (0.52 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 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 36). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 36 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Keeping: 16 catches + 1 stumpings + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 42 matches — 0.48 dismissals per match.
Batting
Not rated: 40 innings at 17.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 0 wickets from 15.0 overs across 3 matches bowled in (of 42 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
