Critical recommendations
medium
Batting
Too many aerial dismissals
33 of 41 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
medium
Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.43 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.4.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.48.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 25 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 22 catches in 51 matches (0.43 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 59 × 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 16). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 16 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 22 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 51 matches — 0.45 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 44 innings at 18.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 92 wickets in 44 matches bowled in (of 51 played) — 2.09 per match at 14.4, economy 3.48, strike rate 24.9.
