Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 55.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 36 catches in 73 matches (0.49 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 43 × 40% · Batting 53 × 30% · Bowling 26 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.48 for the level played (State competition 5 · Rep Div 1 10 · Club 30). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 45 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 36 catches + 4 run outs (2 direct, 2 assisted) in 73 matches — 0.55 per match.
Batting
1,087 runs in 59 innings, adjusted average 23.7, strike rate 55.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
33 wickets in 34 matches bowled in (of 73 played) — 0.97 per match at 12.6, economy 3.49, strike rate 21.7.
