Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 49.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 6 hundred(s), best of 172.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 110 catches in 259 matches (0.42 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 12 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 49 × 40% · Batting 65 × 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
×0.62 for the level played (1st grade 2 · 2nd grade 27). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 29 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 86 catches + 12 run outs (9 direct, 3 assisted) in 259 matches — 0.38 per match.
Batting
5,394 runs in 273 innings, adjusted average 22.5, strike rate 49.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 109 wickets from 615.0 overs across 116 matches bowled in (of 259 played) — 0.94 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
