Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 53.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

25 of 49 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (6 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

medium Fielding
Keeping dismissal rate below par

0.41 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

0.48 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 39 catches in 82 matches (0.48 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 19 run outs.
  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 12 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 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
×0.43 for the level played (Rep Div 1 9 · Club 24). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 33 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Keeping: 22 catches + 12 stumpings + 19 run outs (3 direct, 16 assisted) in 82 matches — 0.65 dismissals per match.
Batting
Not rated: 71 innings at 19.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 8 wickets from 43.3 overs across 18 matches bowled in (of 82 played) — 0.10 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
