Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 35.7 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 (5 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
info

- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 23 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 14 catches in 23 matches (0.61 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 61 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 70 × 30%. 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 23). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 14 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 23 matches — 0.74 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 20 innings at 37.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 39 wickets in 23 matches — 1.70 per match at 13.4, economy 3.51, strike rate 22.9.
