Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 52.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 28 catches in 81 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 13). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 13 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 28 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 81 matches — 0.37 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 71 innings at 23.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 25 wickets from 132.5 overs across 32 matches bowled in (of 81 played) — 0.31 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
