Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 57.4 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
medium
Batting
Too many aerial dismissals
13 of 15 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.17.
- ✓ Safe hands — 8 catches in 23 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting 35 × 30% · Bowling 65 × 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 7). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 7 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 8 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 23 matches — 0.35 per match.
- Batting
- 394 runs in 19 innings, adjusted average 25.1, strike rate 57.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 25 wickets in 19 matches bowled in (of 23 played) — 1.32 per match at 20.4, economy 3.17, strike rate 38.6.
