Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 61.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.43 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 39 catches in 91 matches (0.43 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 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 21). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 21 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 39 catches + 2 run outs (0 direct, 2 assisted) in 91 matches — 0.45 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 96 innings at 17.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 15 wickets from 104.2 overs across 23 matches bowled in (of 91 played) — 0.16 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
