Critical recommendations

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

19 of 23 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 20 catches in 37 matches (0.54 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 69 × 40% · Batting 48 × 30% · Bowling 59 × 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 (Rep Div 1 5 · Club 22). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 27 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 20 catches + 9 run outs (7 direct, 2 assisted) in 37 matches — 0.78 per match.
Batting
481 runs in 33 innings, adjusted average 19.0, strike rate 83.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
22 wickets in 28 matches bowled in (of 37 played) — 0.79 per match at 19.2, economy 4.16, strike rate 27.7.
