Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 58.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 5% of 50+ scores become hundreds (20 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

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

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 110.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 63 catches in 125 matches (0.50 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting 42 × 30% · 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
×0.31 for the level played (Rep Div 1 4 · Club 121). 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: 46 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 125 matches — 0.38 per match.
Batting
3,106 runs in 133 innings, adjusted average 26.7, strike rate 58.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 36 wickets from 152.0 overs across 27 matches bowled in (of 125 played) — 0.29 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
