Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 61.7 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.50 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 35.8.
- ✓ Safe hands — 15 catches in 30 matches (0.50 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 43 × 40% · Batting 56 × 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 30). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 30 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 13 catches + 4 stumpings + 3 run outs (0 direct, 3 assisted) in 30 matches — 0.67 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 672 runs in 26 innings, adjusted average 35.8, strike rate 61.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 5 wickets from 19.0 overs across 5 matches bowled in (of 30 played) — 0.17 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
