Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 46.0 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 14% of 50+ scores become hundreds (6 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 102.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.5.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.86.
- ✓ Safe hands — 29 catches in 80 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting 60 × 30% · Bowling 57 × 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 21). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 21 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 29 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 80 matches — 0.40 per match.
- Batting
- 1,183 runs in 65 innings, adjusted average 25.2, strike rate 46.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 137 wickets in 78 matches bowled in (of 80 played) — 1.76 per match at 15.5, economy 2.86, strike rate 32.5.
