Critical recommendations

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

12 of 24 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.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (8 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.61 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 33.0.
  • ✓ Scores quickly (SR 95.7) without sacrificing consistency.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 19 catches in 31 matches (0.61 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 70 × 40% · Batting 76 × 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
×0.30 for the level played (Club 27). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 27 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 18 catches + 4 run outs (1 direct, 3 assisted) in 31 matches — 0.71 per match.
Batting
825 runs in 30 innings, adjusted average 33.0, strike rate 95.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 5 wickets from 46.8 overs across 12 matches bowled in (of 31 played) — 0.16 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
