Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 51.4 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

6 of 10 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.

Strengths

  • ✓ Reliable in the field — contributes a dismissal every second match.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 43 × 40% · Batting 43 × 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 7). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 7 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 4 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 18 matches — 0.28 per match.
Batting
196 runs in 14 innings, adjusted average 18.0, strike rate 51.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
