Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 52.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
medium
Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting 39 × 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 11). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 11 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 31 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 111 matches — 0.28 per match.
- Batting
- 1,918 runs in 98 innings, adjusted average 23.2, strike rate 52.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 17 wickets from 104.0 overs across 27 matches bowled in (of 111 played) — 0.15 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
