Critical recommendations

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

20 of 39 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 Fielding
Keeping dismissal rate below par

0.45 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

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Scores quickly (SR 95.8) without sacrificing consistency.
  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 102.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 34 catches in 66 matches (0.52 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 5 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 49 × 40% · Batting 52 × 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
×0.31 for the level played (Rep Div 2 9 · Club 57). 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
Keeping: 25 catches + 5 stumpings + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 66 matches — 0.52 dismissals per match.
Batting
1,184 runs in 58 innings, adjusted average 27.1, strike rate 95.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 24 wickets from 79.8 overs across 30 matches bowled in (of 66 played) — 0.80 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
