Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 63.2 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.52 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 11 catches in 21 matches (0.52 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 63 × 40% · Batting 40 × 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 13). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 13 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 11 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 21 matches — 0.57 per match.
Batting
452 runs in 20 innings, adjusted average 23.7, strike rate 63.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 4 wickets from 20.0 overs across 6 matches bowled in (of 21 played) — 0.19 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
