Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 50.8 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
17 of 22 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 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
- ×0.76 for the level played (1st grade 13 · 2nd grade 7). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 20 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 8 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 26 matches — 0.35 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 23 innings at 16.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 3 wickets from 14.0 overs across 5 matches bowled in (of 26 played) — 0.12 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
