Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 9.9 over 41 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Fielding
Keeping dismissal rate below par

0.25 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.

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 — 21 catches in 44 matches (0.48 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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 23). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 23 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 13 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 44 matches — 0.32 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 41 innings at 9.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 7 wickets from 28.2 overs across 10 matches bowled in (of 44 played) — 0.16 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
