Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 64.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
20 of 37 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.
Only 14% of 50+ scores become hundreds (12 fifties, 2 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
0.76 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 40.4.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 119.
- ✓ Safe hands — 31 catches in 41 matches (0.76 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 8 stumpings.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 43 × 40% · Batting 79 × 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 22). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 22 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 23 catches + 8 stumpings + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 41 matches — 0.80 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 1,503 runs in 40 innings, adjusted average 40.4, strike rate 64.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 0 wickets from 3.8 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 41 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
