Critical recommendations
8 of 10 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.
Going at 5.68 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Only 0.10 catches per match over 20 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Effective lower-order runs — adjusted average 35.5 (frequently not out).
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 129.0) without sacrificing consistency.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 36 × 40% · Batting 69 × 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 8). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 8 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 2 catches + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 20 matches — 0.25 per match.
- Batting
- 474 runs in 20 innings, adjusted average 35.6, strike rate 129.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 7 wickets from 21.8 overs across 11 matches bowled in (of 20 played) — 0.35 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
