Batting Working on Basics

Not enough data

Representative pathway — 4 pathway points in the overall rating

  • ● Premier or state pathway — 9 matches (+3.6)
  • ● Body of work — 36 imported matches (+0.7)

Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 62.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 13 catches in 36 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 49 × 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
×0.82 for the level played (1st grade 8 · 2nd grade 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 9 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 13 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 36 matches — 0.42 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 38 innings at 26.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 0 wickets from 3.8 overs across 5 matches bowled in (of 36 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
