Batting
Too many aerial dismissals
29 of 34 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
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
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.8.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.14.
- ✓ Safe hands — 23 catches in 54 matches (0.43 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 42 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 54 × 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 36). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 36 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 23 catches + 4 run outs (2 direct, 2 assisted) in 54 matches — 0.50 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 46 innings at 16.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 65 wickets in 49 matches bowled in (of 54 played) — 1.33 per match at 17.8, economy 3.14, strike rate 34.0.
