Critical recommendations
medium
Batting
Too many aerial dismissals
72 of 90 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 5 hundred(s), best of 164.
- ✓ Safe hands — 35 catches in 97 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 43 × 40% · Batting 72 × 30% · Bowling 44 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.46 for the level played (Rep Div 1 11 · 2nd grade 1 · 3rd grade 8 · Club 4 · 4th grade 16). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 35 catches + 9 run outs (1 direct, 8 assisted) in 97 matches — 0.45 per match.
- Batting
- 2,560 runs in 99 innings, adjusted average 28.2, strike rate 75.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 93 wickets in 66 matches bowled in (of 97 played) — 1.41 per match at 20.0, economy 4.14, strike rate 29.0.
