Critical recommendations

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

15 of 29 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 102.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 21 catches in 27 matches (0.78 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 74 × 40% · Batting 62 × 30% · Bowling 32 × 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 10). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 10 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 21 catches + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 27 matches — 0.89 per match.
Batting
645 runs in 32 innings, adjusted average 22.1, strike rate 73.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
16 wickets in 14 matches bowled in (of 27 played) — 1.14 per match at 23.3, economy 3.98, strike rate 35.1.
