Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 53.4 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 18% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 3 hundred(s), best of 127.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 25 catches in 64 matches (0.39 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 58 × 40% · Batting 42 × 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
×0.30 for the level played (Club 19). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 19 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 25 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 64 matches — 0.41 per match.
Batting
1,470 runs in 72 innings, adjusted average 23.0, strike rate 53.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 4 wickets from 35.3 overs across 4 matches bowled in (of 64 played) — 0.06 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
