Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 27.2 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
7 of 7 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
1.39 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 25 catches in 18 matches (1.39 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 92 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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
- ×0.43 for the level played (2nd grade 3 · 3rd grade 13 · Club 1 · 5th grade and below 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 24 catches + 3 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 18 matches — 1.50 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 11 innings at 18.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
