Critical recommendations

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (8 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.36 is excellent but a wicket every 50 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 39.2.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.36.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 15 catches in 36 matches (0.42 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 63 × 40% · Batting 57 × 30% · Bowling 31 × 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 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: 15 catches + 5 run outs (1 direct, 4 assisted) in 36 matches — 0.56 per match.
Batting
1,040 runs in 33 innings, adjusted average 39.2, strike rate 65.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
34 wickets in 33 matches bowled in (of 36 played) — 1.03 per match at 27.8, economy 3.36, strike rate 49.6.
