The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 88 balls (SR 57), then 50 to 100 in just 50 (SR 100) — more than double the tempo.

Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 64.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 37.7.
  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 107.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 9 catches in 11 matches (0.82 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 73 × 40% · Batting 68 × 30% · Bowling 39 × 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 11). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 11 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 9 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 11 matches — 0.91 per match.
Batting
415 runs in 11 innings, adjusted average 37.7, strike rate 64.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
7 wickets in 10 matches bowled in (of 11 played) — 0.70 per match at 35.0, economy 4.30, strike rate 48.9.
