Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 63.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
medium
Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds
Only 11% of 50+ scores become hundreds (8 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 36 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.65 for the level played (1st grade 11 · 2nd grade 26 · 3rd grade 2 · Club 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 22 catches + 4 run outs (3 direct, 1 assisted) in 68 matches — 0.38 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 60 innings at 24.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 55 wickets in 55 matches bowled in (of 68 played) — 1.00 per match at 26.1, economy 4.00, strike rate 39.1.
