Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 60.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (17 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.24 dismissals per match across 78 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting 69 × 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
×0.44 for the level played (Rep Div 1 13 · 3rd grade 2 · Club 30 · 4th grade 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 46 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 14 catches + 5 run outs (1 direct, 4 assisted) in 78 matches — 0.24 per match.
Batting
1,945 runs in 74 innings, adjusted average 29.8, strike rate 60.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 9 wickets from 31.0 overs across 10 matches bowled in (of 78 played) — 0.12 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
