Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 44.4 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 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (6 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 150 catches in 129 matches (1.16 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 38 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 100 × 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
×0.30 for the level played (Rep Div 1 1 · Club 128). 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: 143 catches + 38 stumpings + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 129 matches — 1.41 dismissals per match.
Batting
Not rated: 122 innings at 17.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 2 wickets from 10.0 overs across 2 matches bowled in (of 129 played) — 0.02 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
