Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 47.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.19 dismissals per match across 53 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 162.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 9 × 40% · Batting 40 × 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 20). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 20 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 10 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 53 matches — 0.19 per match.
Batting
1,007 runs in 51 innings, adjusted average 22.8, strike rate 47.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 8 wickets from 43.7 overs across 15 matches bowled in (of 53 played) — 0.15 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
