Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 38.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
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
Low overall fielding impact
0.21 dismissals per match across 133 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 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 133). 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: 27 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 133 matches — 0.21 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 120 innings at 17.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 5 wickets from 28.0 overs across 4 matches bowled in (of 133 played) — 0.04 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
