Critical recommendations
medium
Batting
Too many aerial dismissals
3 of 3 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Strengths
- ✓ Effective lower-order runs — adjusted average 35.2 (frequently not out).
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 7.9.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.05.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 16 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 5 catches in 8 matches (0.63 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 73 × 40% · Batting 64 × 30% · Bowling 75 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.78 for the level played (Rep Div 1 7). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 7 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 5 catches + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 8 matches — 1.00 per match.
- Batting
- 141 runs in 6 innings, adjusted average 35.3, strike rate 75.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 11 wickets in 6 matches bowled in (of 8 played) — 1.83 per match at 7.9, economy 3.05, strike rate 15.5.
