Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 39.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
medium
Batting
Too many aerial dismissals
6 of 8 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 9 catches in 8 matches (1.13 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 52 × 40% · Batting 44 × 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 8). 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
- Keeping: 7 catches + 0 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 8 matches — 0.88 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 184 runs in 9 innings, adjusted average 22.7, strike rate 39.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
