Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 64.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 10% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
medium
Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (12 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 49 catches in 134 matches (0.37 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 43 × 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 40). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 49 catches + 5 run outs (4 direct, 1 assisted) in 134 matches — 0.40 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 134 innings at 20.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 21 wickets from 101.5 overs across 33 matches bowled in (of 134 played) — 0.16 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
