Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 56.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

12 of 16 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

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.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 12 catches in 22 matches (0.55 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 54 × 40% · Batting 38 × 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
×0.35 for the level played (Rep Div 1 2 · Club 20). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
Fielding
Outfield: 12 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 22 matches — 0.55 per match.
Batting
420 runs in 21 innings, adjusted average 24.8, strike rate 56.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 1 wicket from 38.2 overs across 13 matches bowled in (of 22 played) — 0.08 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
