Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 52.8 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 16% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

1.08 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 26 catches in 24 matches (1.08 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 31 × 40% · Batting 49 × 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 5 · 4th grade 2). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 7 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Keeping: 25 catches + 0 stumpings + 2 run outs (0 direct, 2 assisted) in 24 matches — 1.12 dismissals per match.
Batting
481 runs in 25 innings, adjusted average 20.8, strike rate 52.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
