Critical recommendations
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.
medium
Fielding
Low overall fielding impact
0.20 dismissals per match across 96 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 6 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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 14). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 14 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 15 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 96 matches — 0.17 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 88 innings at 20.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 43 wickets from 185.0 overs across 62 matches bowled in (of 96 played) — 0.69 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
