Critical recommendations

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

13 of 18 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (9 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

Strengths

  • ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 45.0.
  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 5 stumpings.
  • ✓ Reliable in the field — contributes a dismissal every second match.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 40% · Batting 71 × 30% · 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 15). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 15 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 6 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 27 matches — 0.30 per match.
Batting
850 runs in 23 innings, adjusted average 45.0, strike rate 88.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 4 wickets from 17.0 overs across 5 matches bowled in (of 27 played) — 0.15 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
