Batting
Too many aerial dismissals
57 of 80 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.86 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 43.8.
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 99.3) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 8 hundred(s), best of 150.
- ✓ Safe hands — 75 catches in 87 matches (0.86 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 10 run outs.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 10 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting 95 × 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
- ×0.34 for the level played (Rep Div 1 3 · Club 35). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 38 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 36 catches + 10 run outs (4 direct, 6 assisted) in 87 matches — 0.53 per match.
- Batting
- 3,524 runs in 87 innings, adjusted average 43.8, strike rate 99.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 8 wickets from 27.3 overs across 5 matches bowled in (of 87 played) — 0.09 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
