Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 50.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.40 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 18 catches in 45 matches (0.40 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 42 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 55 × 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 5 · 3rd grade 4 · Club 8 · 4th grade 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 18 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 17 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 45 matches — 0.40 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 41 innings at 21.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
56 wickets in 42 matches bowled in (of 45 played) — 1.33 per match at 21.9, economy 3.96, strike rate 33.1.
