Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 60.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
13 of 24 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.
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (9 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 35.6.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting 45 × 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 8). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 8 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 4 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 33 matches — 0.18 per match.
- Batting
- 912 runs in 32 innings, adjusted average 35.6, strike rate 60.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 15 wickets from 63.0 overs across 14 matches bowled in (of 33 played) — 1.07 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
