Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 39.7 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
13 of 14 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
0.40 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 8 catches in 20 matches (0.40 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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 7). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 7 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 8 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 20 matches — 0.40 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 19 innings at 27.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 10 wickets from 43.3 overs across 11 matches bowled in (of 20 played) — 0.91 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
