TDCA 3rd Grade · 2023/24 · 15×4, 0×6 · SR 64

The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 94 balls (SR 53), then 50 to 100 in just 62 (SR 81) — more than double the tempo.

Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 53.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

8 of 11 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 17% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.70 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 40.5.
  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 101.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 7 catches in 10 matches (0.70 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 46 × 40% · Batting 78 × 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 10). 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
Outfield: 7 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 10 matches — 0.70 per match.
Batting
449 runs in 12 innings, adjusted average 40.5, strike rate 53.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
