Critical recommendations

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

3 of 5 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.

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

  • ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 40.2.
  • ✓ Scores quickly (SR 94.2) without sacrificing consistency.
  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.4.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 23 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting 49 × 30% · Bowling 63 × 30%. 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 7). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 7 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 4 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 10 matches — 0.40 per match.
Batting
219 runs in 7 innings, adjusted average 40.2, strike rate 94.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
20 wickets in 9 matches bowled in (of 10 played) — 2.22 per match at 17.4, economy 4.53, strike rate 23.1.
