Critical recommendations
medium
Bowling
Tight but not threatening
Economy of 3.32 is excellent but a wicket every 48 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.63 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 110.
- ✓ Safe hands — 39 catches in 62 matches (0.63 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 70 × 40% · Batting 63 × 30% · Bowling 16 × 30%. 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 (2nd grade 1 · 3rd grade 11 · 4th grade 16). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 28 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 39 catches + 3 run outs (0 direct, 3 assisted) in 62 matches — 0.68 per match.
- Batting
- 1,349 runs in 59 innings, adjusted average 25.2, strike rate 77.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 32 wickets in 38 matches bowled in (of 62 played) — 0.84 per match at 26.5, economy 3.32, strike rate 47.9.
