Critical recommendations

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

26 of 36 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.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 2.85 is excellent but a wicket every 42 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.85.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 44 × 30%. 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 29). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 29 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 13 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 46 matches — 0.30 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 42 innings at 20.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
46 wickets in 36 matches bowled in (of 46 played) — 1.28 per match at 20.2, economy 2.85, strike rate 42.5.
