Critical recommendations
Out for 0 in 15% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
71% of runs come in boundaries yet the strike rate is modest — between boundaries the scoreboard stalls. Add strike rotation to keep bowlers from settling.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 126.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 10 × 40% · Batting 79 × 30% · Bowling 30 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.24 for the level played (Club 2 · 4th grade 1 · 5th grade and below 5). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 8 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 21 matches — 0.33 per match.
- Batting
- 469 runs in 20 innings, adjusted average 24.6, strike rate 86.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 3 wickets in 7 matches bowled in (of 21 played) — 0.14 per match at 45.7, economy 3.56, strike rate 77.0.
