Critical recommendations
high
Fielding
Catching return too low for selection
Only 0.13 catches per match over 52 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
medium
Batting
Too many aerial dismissals
25 of 35 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 109.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 12.9.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.38.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 10 × 40% · Batting 55 × 30% · Bowling 57 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.36 for the level played (Rep Div 1 3 · 3rd grade 2 · Club 18 · 4th grade 3). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 26 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 7 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 52 matches — 0.13 per match.
- Batting
- 858 runs in 44 innings, adjusted average 23.5, strike rate 75.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 55 wickets in 36 matches bowled in (of 52 played) — 1.53 per match at 12.9, economy 2.38, strike rate 32.6.
