Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 49.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
high
Fielding
Catching return too low for selection
Only 0.00 catches per match over 26 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 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
- ×0.33 for the level played (State competition 1 · Club 25). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 0 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 26 matches — 0.00 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 26 innings at 21.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 7 wickets from 42.0 overs across 12 matches bowled in (of 26 played) — 0.58 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
