Critical recommendations
5 of 7 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Only 0.00 catches per match over 17 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Strengths
- ✓ Effective lower-order runs — adjusted average 51.2 (frequently not out).
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 98.4) without sacrificing consistency.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 8 × 40% · Batting 82 × 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 15). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 15 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 0 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 17 matches — 0.06 per match.
- Batting
- 478 runs in 14 innings, adjusted average 51.2, strike rate 98.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
