Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 52.8 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 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.64.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 47 × 40% · Batting 48 × 30% · Bowling 53 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.58 for the level played (Rep Div 1 20 · 3rd grade 1 · Club 6 · 4th grade 7). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 34 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 21 catches + 5 run outs (3 direct, 2 assisted) in 73 matches — 0.36 per match.
- Batting
- 920 runs in 52 innings, adjusted average 23.1, strike rate 52.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 63 wickets in 66 matches bowled in (of 73 played) — 0.95 per match at 22.8, economy 3.64, strike rate 37.6.
