Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball
3 of 5 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Strengths
- ✓ Effective lower-order runs — adjusted average 37.4 (frequently not out).
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 98.8) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Safe hands — 6 catches in 16 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 6 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 59 × 40% · Batting 75 × 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 15). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 15 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 6 catches + 6 stumpings + 3 run outs (0 direct, 3 assisted) in 16 matches — 0.94 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 266 runs in 11 innings, adjusted average 37.4, strike rate 98.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
