Critical recommendations

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

12 of 17 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (5 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.21 dismissals per match across 34 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 32.0.
  • ✓ Scores quickly (SR 106.8) without sacrificing consistency.
  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.4.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 17 × 40% · Batting 62 × 30% · Bowling 60 × 30%. 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 19). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 19 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 5 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 34 matches — 0.21 per match.
Batting
630 runs in 27 innings, adjusted average 32.0, strike rate 106.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
25 wickets in 24 matches bowled in (of 34 played) — 1.04 per match at 17.4, economy 3.84, strike rate 27.1.
