- ● Body of work — 29 imported matches (+0.6)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 61.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Only 12% of 50+ scores become hundreds (7 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
0.79 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 44.8.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 100.
- ✓ Safe hands — 23 catches in 29 matches (0.79 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 84 × 40% · Batting 75 × 30% · Bowling 53 × 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 25). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 25 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 23 catches + 5 run outs (3 direct, 2 assisted) in 29 matches — 0.97 per match.
- Batting
- 992 runs in 29 innings, adjusted average 44.8, strike rate 61.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 23 wickets in 26 matches bowled in (of 29 played) — 0.88 per match at 20.4, economy 4.56, strike rate 26.9.
