Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 40.7 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.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 33 catches in 86 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 40% · Batting 40 × 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
- ×0.23 for the level played (Club 13 · 4th grade 1 · 5th grade and below 72). 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: 33 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 86 matches — 0.38 per match.
- Batting
- 1,522 runs in 78 innings, adjusted average 25.3, strike rate 40.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 6 wickets from 39.3 overs across 14 matches bowled in (of 86 played) — 0.07 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
