Critical recommendations

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

8 of 12 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.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 25% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 7 catches in 13 matches (0.54 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 58 × 40% · Batting 47 × 30% · Bowling 43 × 30%. 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 9). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 9 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 7 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 13 matches — 0.69 per match.
Batting
232 runs in 12 innings, adjusted average 19.3, strike rate 100.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
8 wickets in 9 matches bowled in (of 13 played) — 0.89 per match at 24.0, economy 5.33, strike rate 27.0.
