Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 10.8 over 16 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 19% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 8 catches in 19 matches (0.42 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 40% · Batting 45 × 30% · Bowling 39 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.30 for the level played (Club 5). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 5 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 8 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 19 matches — 0.53 per match.
Batting
146 runs in 16 innings, adjusted average 10.8, strike rate 41.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
21 wickets in 17 matches bowled in (of 19 played) — 1.24 per match at 30.4, economy 4.82, strike rate 37.9.
