Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 60.7 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 15% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 12% of 50+ scores become hundreds (14 fifties, 2 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

medium Fielding
Keeping dismissal rate below par

0.26 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 103 catches in 291 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 15 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 51 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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 18). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 18 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Keeping: 60 catches + 15 stumpings + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 291 matches — 0.26 dismissals per match.
Batting
Not rated: 252 innings at 17.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 14 wickets from 105.5 overs across 34 matches bowled in (of 291 played) — 0.05 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
