Critical recommendations

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

2 of 4 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.

high Bowling
Economy under pressure

Going at 7.44 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).

Strengths

  • ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 30.0.
  • ✓ Scores quickly (SR 103.8) without sacrificing consistency.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting 61 × 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
×0.30 for the level played (Club 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 1 match since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 0 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 5 matches — 0.00 per match.
Batting
125 runs in 5 innings, adjusted average 30.0, strike rate 103.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 2 wickets from 16.0 overs across 4 matches bowled in (of 5 played) — 0.40 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
