Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 57.4 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
medium
Batting
Too many aerial dismissals
8 of 11 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 25 × 40% · Batting 37 × 30% · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.32 for the level played (3rd grade 5 · Club 5 · 4th grade 1). 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
- Outfield: 2 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 11 matches — 0.36 per match.
- Batting
- 199 runs in 11 innings, adjusted average 18.1, strike rate 57.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 9 wickets from 37.0 overs across 4 matches bowled in (of 11 played) — 0.82 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
