Critical recommendations

high Fielding
Catching return too low for selection

Only 0.00 catches per match over 19 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.

Strengths

  • ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 36.3.
  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 100.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 6 × 40% · Batting 72 × 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 19). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 19 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 0 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 19 matches — 0.05 per match.
Batting
546 runs in 19 innings, adjusted average 36.3, strike rate 76.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
