Critical recommendations

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

3 of 4 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

info General

Only 4 batting innings imported — import more of this player's matches before treating these findings as conclusive.

Strengths

  • ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 33.2.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 40 × 40% · Batting 59 × 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
×0.24 for the level played (4th grade 1 · 5th grade and below 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 2 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 1 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 4 matches — 0.25 per match.
Batting
133 runs in 4 innings, adjusted average 33.3, strike rate 71.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 6 wickets from 31.0 overs across 4 matches — 1.50 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
