Critical recommendations
28 of 35 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
0.51 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.44.
- ✓ Safe hands — 25 catches in 49 matches (0.51 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 49 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 49 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.52 for the level played (1st grade 3 · 2nd grade 16 · 3rd grade 5 · Club 8). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 32 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 25 catches + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 49 matches — 0.57 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 40 innings at 19.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 94 wickets in 46 matches bowled in (of 49 played) — 2.04 per match at 18.1, economy 3.44, strike rate 31.5.
