Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 61.8 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 (11 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

Strengths

  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 28 run outs.
  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 9 stumpings.
  • ✓ Reliable in the field — contributes a dismissal every second match.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 39 × 40% · Batting 48 × 30% · Bowling 25 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.40 for the level played (Rep Div 1 9 · Club 36). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 45 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 35 catches + 28 run outs (7 direct, 21 assisted) in 156 matches — 0.40 per match.
Batting
2,476 runs in 154 innings, adjusted average 24.1, strike rate 61.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
73 wickets in 106 matches bowled in (of 156 played) — 0.69 per match at 16.3, economy 4.72, strike rate 20.7.
