Critical recommendations

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

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

  • ✓ Safe hands — 23 catches in 44 matches (0.52 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting 64 × 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
×0.30 for the level played (Club 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 1 match since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 16 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 44 matches — 0.36 per match.
Batting
854 runs in 50 innings, adjusted average 18.5, strike rate 93.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 14 wickets from 70.3 overs across 22 matches bowled in (of 44 played) — 0.64 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
