Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 45.2 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 (9 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 13 catches in 35 matches (0.37 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 38 × 40% · Batting 55 × 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
- ×0.50 for the level played (2nd grade 21 · 3rd grade 5 · 4th grade 9). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 13 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 35 matches — 0.40 per match.
- Batting
- 1,017 runs in 40 innings, adjusted average 27.3, strike rate 45.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 1 wicket from 11.0 overs across 3 matches bowled in (of 35 played) — 0.03 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
