Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 60.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

Fielding

How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting 51 × 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 11). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 11 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 13 catches + 2 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 21 matches — 0.71 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 688 runs in 24 innings, adjusted average 29.9, strike rate 60.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
