Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 44.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 12% of 50+ scores become hundreds (7 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

info Fielding

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 119 catches in 109 matches (1.09 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 8 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 48 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 20 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.48 for the level played (1st grade 28 · 2nd grade 35 · 3rd grade 25 · Club 19 · 4th grade 2). 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: 101 catches + 8 stumpings + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 109 matches — 1.04 dismissals per match.
Batting
Not rated: 96 innings at 20.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
9 wickets in 7 matches bowled in (of 109 played) — 0.08 per match at 24.6, economy 3.66, strike rate 40.2.
