Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 57.8 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (5 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.04.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 17 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 40% · Batting 44 × 30% · Bowling 62 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.39 for the level played (2nd grade 7 · 3rd grade 2 · Club 5 · 4th grade 8 · 5th grade and below 2). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 24 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 68 catches + 17 run outs (15 direct, 2 assisted) in 209 matches — 0.41 per match.
Batting
2,523 runs in 166 innings, adjusted average 19.0, strike rate 57.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
167 wickets in 185 matches bowled in (of 209 played) — 0.90 per match at 18.6, economy 3.04, strike rate 36.6.
