Critical recommendations
medium
Batting
Too many aerial dismissals
8 of 9 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 90.5) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 101.
- ✓ Safe hands — 5 catches in 9 matches (0.56 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 40% · Batting 65 × 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 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 4 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 9 matches — 0.44 per match.
- Batting
- 269 runs in 9 innings, adjusted average 29.9, strike rate 90.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
