Critical recommendations
medium
Batting
Too many aerial dismissals
30 of 40 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 14% of 50+ scores become hundreds (19 fifties, 3 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 47.9.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 3 hundred(s), best of 125.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 11.6.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.32.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 21 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting 81 × 30% · Bowling 75 × 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 2 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 17 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 59 matches — 0.31 per match.
- Batting
- 1,948 runs in 46 innings, adjusted average 47.9, strike rate 85.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 96 wickets in 58 matches bowled in (of 59 played) — 1.66 per match at 11.6, economy 3.32, strike rate 21.0.
