Critical recommendations
33 of 46 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Only 12% of 50+ scores become hundreds (7 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
0.60 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 25 catches in 42 matches (0.60 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 42 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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
- ×0.57 for the level played (2nd grade 10 · 3rd grade 2). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 12 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 25 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 42 matches — 0.62 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 46 innings at 24.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 2 wickets from 1.2 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 42 played) — 0.05 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
