Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 54.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 32.7.
  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 3 hundred(s), best of 129.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 58 catches in 63 matches (0.92 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting 80 × 30% · Bowling 16 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.78 for the level played (1st grade 19 · 2nd grade 8). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 27 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 28 catches + 4 run outs (0 direct, 4 assisted) in 63 matches — 0.51 per match.
Batting
1,852 runs in 63 innings, adjusted average 32.7, strike rate 54.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
14 wickets in 15 matches bowled in (of 63 played) — 0.22 per match at 17.8, economy 3.81, strike rate 28.0.
