Critical recommendations

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

72 of 100 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 9% of 50+ scores become hundreds (10 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.55 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Scores quickly (SR 117.8) without sacrificing consistency.
  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 111.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 76 catches in 137 matches (0.55 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 45 × 40% · Batting 70 × 30% · Bowling 61 × 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 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 75 catches + 4 run outs (2 direct, 2 assisted) in 137 matches — 0.58 per match.
Batting
2,048 runs in 118 innings, adjusted average 20.0, strike rate 117.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
102 wickets in 94 matches bowled in (of 137 played) — 1.09 per match at 21.5, economy 4.48, strike rate 28.8.
