Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 38.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.71 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 10 catches in 14 matches (0.71 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 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 14). 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: 6 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 14 matches — 0.50 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 13 innings at 20.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 3 wickets from 19.0 overs across 7 matches bowled in (of 14 played) — 0.43 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
