Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 47.4 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
medium
Fielding
Low overall fielding impact
0.15 dismissals per match across 20 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 14 × 40% · Batting 37 × 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
- ×0.56 for the level played (1st grade 2 · Rep Div 1 13 · 3rd grade 4 · 4th grade 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 3 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 20 matches — 0.15 per match.
- Batting
- 341 runs in 21 innings, adjusted average 17.0, strike rate 47.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 5 wickets from 22.0 overs across 5 matches bowled in (of 20 played) — 0.25 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
