medium
Batting
Too many aerial dismissals
6 of 7 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 8 catches in 8 matches (1.00 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 55 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 29 × 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 8). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 8 catches + 0 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 8 matches — 1.00 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 7 innings at 17.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 3 wickets in 6 matches bowled in (of 8 played) — 0.50 per match at 37.3, economy 4.67, strike rate 48.0.
