Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 58.1 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 (6 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 47 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 23 × 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 40). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 37 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 115 matches — 0.34 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 102 innings at 16.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 60 wickets in 71 matches bowled in (of 115 played) — 0.85 per match at 23.4, economy 3.98, strike rate 35.4.
