Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 62.3 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 (6 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.48 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 48 catches in 99 matches (0.48 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 60 × 40% · Batting 51 × 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
- ×0.34 for the level played (Rep Div 1 3 · Club 37). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 48 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 99 matches — 0.54 per match.
- Batting
- 1,499 runs in 95 innings, adjusted average 16.9, strike rate 62.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 5 wickets from 13.0 overs across 7 matches bowled in (of 99 played) — 0.05 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
