Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 57.8 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
1.09 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 3 hundred(s), best of 125.
- ✓ Safe hands — 60 catches in 55 matches (1.09 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 92 × 40% · Batting 68 × 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 9 · Club 20 · 4th grade 2). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 31 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 55 catches + 4 stumpings + 9 run outs (2 direct, 7 assisted) in 55 matches — 1.24 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 1,103 runs in 57 innings, adjusted average 23.4, strike rate 57.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 0 wickets from 2.0 overs across 2 matches bowled in (of 55 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
