Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 54.5 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 16% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 79 × 40% · Batting 72 × 30% · 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 16). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 16 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 27 catches + 7 stumpings + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 37 matches — 0.97 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 1,137 runs in 38 innings, adjusted average 33.9, strike rate 54.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
