Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 35.8 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.52 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 22 catches in 42 matches (0.52 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 44 × 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
- ×0.44 for the level played (2nd grade 3 · 3rd grade 23). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 26 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 22 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 42 matches — 0.57 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 31 innings at 27.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 18 wickets from 141.0 overs across 19 matches bowled in (of 42 played) — 0.95 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
