Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 50.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 127.
- ✓ Safe hands — 28 catches in 73 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 43 × 40% · Batting 37 × 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 32). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 32 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 28 catches + 7 run outs (5 direct, 2 assisted) in 73 matches — 0.48 per match.
- Batting
- 1,230 runs in 65 innings, adjusted average 22.4, strike rate 50.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
