Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 49.3 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 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (5 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 31 catches in 79 matches (0.39 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting 47 × 30% · Bowling 28 × 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 40). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 22 catches + 7 run outs (2 direct, 5 assisted) in 79 matches — 0.37 per match.
- Batting
- 1,298 runs in 74 innings, adjusted average 19.9, strike rate 49.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 35 wickets in 36 matches bowled in (of 79 played) — 0.97 per match at 17.7, economy 5.05, strike rate 21.0.
