Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 45.4 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 12% of 50+ scores become hundreds (7 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.47 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 32.8.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 108.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.5.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.82.
- ✓ Safe hands — 28 catches in 59 matches (0.47 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 42 × 40% · Batting 60 × 30% · Bowling 62 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.36 for the level played (Rep Div 1 4 · Club 29). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 33 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 28 catches + 5 run outs (4 direct, 1 assisted) in 59 matches — 0.56 per match.
- Batting
- 1,503 runs in 57 innings, adjusted average 32.8, strike rate 45.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 120 wickets in 58 matches bowled in (of 59 played) — 2.07 per match at 16.5, economy 2.82, strike rate 35.1.
