Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 61.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
17 of 24 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
0.19 dismissals per match across 31 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 120.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 22 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 18 × 40% · Batting 47 × 30% · Bowling 54 × 30%. 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 29). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 29 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 6 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 31 matches — 0.19 per match.
- Batting
- 701 runs in 29 innings, adjusted average 28.3, strike rate 61.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 14 wickets in 12 matches bowled in (of 31 played) — 0.45 per match at 19.7, economy 5.39, strike rate 21.9.
