Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 59.1 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 8% of 50+ scores become hundreds (11 fifties, 1 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

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 220.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 45 catches in 87 matches (0.52 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 71 × 40% · Batting 47 × 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 15). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 15 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 44 catches + 8 run outs (8 direct, 0 assisted) in 87 matches — 0.60 per match.
Batting
2,089 runs in 95 innings, adjusted average 23.6, strike rate 59.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 88 wickets from 384.0 overs across 51 matches bowled in (of 87 played) — 1.73 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
