Critical recommendations
6 of 11 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.
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.22 dismissals per match across 23 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 102.7) without sacrificing consistency.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting 39 × 30% · Bowling 29 × 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 9). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 9 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 4 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 23 matches — 0.22 per match.
- Batting
- 244 runs in 16 innings, adjusted average 20.0, strike rate 102.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 15 wickets in 21 matches bowled in (of 23 played) — 0.71 per match at 11.5, economy 3.50, strike rate 19.7.
