Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 57.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

10 of 13 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 21% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.50 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 8 catches in 16 matches (0.50 per match), a genuine selection asset.
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
×0.30 for the level played (Club 3). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 3 matches since 31 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 16 matches — 0.56 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 14 innings at 20.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 10 wickets from 33.0 overs across 7 matches bowled in (of 16 played) — 1.43 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
