Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 54.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (12 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.52 is excellent but a wicket every 51 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 10 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 18 × 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
×0.37 for the level played (3rd grade 12 · 4th grade 7). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 19 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 31 catches + 10 run outs (9 direct, 1 assisted) in 159 matches — 0.26 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 141 innings at 21.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 33 wickets from 278.5 overs across 64 matches bowled in (of 159 played) — 0.52 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
