Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 63.2 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
medium
Fielding
Keeping dismissal rate below par
0.50 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
0.63 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 32.2.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 6 hundred(s), best of 161.
- ✓ Safe hands — 83 catches in 131 matches (0.63 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 13 run outs.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 18 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting 84 × 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
- ×0.67 for the level played (Rep Div 1 30 · 2nd grade 9 · 3rd grade 4 · Club 5). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 48 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 47 catches + 18 stumpings + 13 run outs (2 direct, 11 assisted) in 131 matches — 0.60 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 3,482 runs in 129 innings, adjusted average 32.2, strike rate 63.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 5 wickets from 20.7 overs across 11 matches bowled in (of 131 played) — 0.04 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
