Critical recommendations
8 of 14 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
0.9 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
0.41 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 113.4) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.6.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 17 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 11 catches in 27 matches (0.41 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 45 × 40% · Batting 60 × 30% · Bowling 62 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.32 for the level played (Rep Div 1 1 · Club 20). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 21 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 11 catches + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 27 matches — 0.52 per match.
- Batting
- 476 runs in 22 innings, adjusted average 29.5, strike rate 113.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 20 wickets in 18 matches bowled in (of 27 played) — 1.11 per match at 14.6, economy 5.12, strike rate 17.1.
