Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 58.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
19 of 26 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Only 11% of 50+ scores become hundreds (8 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
0.87 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 42.0.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 121.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 12.4.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.80.
- ✓ Safe hands — 27 catches in 31 matches (0.87 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 73 × 40% · Batting 76 × 30% · Bowling 66 × 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 27). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 27 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 27 catches + 3 run outs (0 direct, 3 assisted) in 31 matches — 0.97 per match.
- Batting
- 1,113 runs in 30 innings, adjusted average 42.1, strike rate 58.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 49 wickets in 23 matches bowled in (of 31 played) — 2.13 per match at 12.4, economy 2.80, strike rate 26.6.
