Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 55.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Only 14% of 50+ scores become hundreds (6 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
0.64 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 32.0.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 117.
- ✓ Safe hands — 25 catches in 39 matches (0.64 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting 60 × 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
- ×0.32 for the level played (1st grade 2 · Club 37). 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: 19 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 39 matches — 0.54 per match.
- Batting
- 1,153 runs in 42 innings, adjusted average 32.0, strike rate 55.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 0 wickets from 10.0 overs across 2 matches bowled in (of 39 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
