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 Fielding
Keeping dismissal rate below par

0.26 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.

Strengths

  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 10 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 40% · Batting 42 × 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
×0.40 for the level played (Rep Div 1 9 · Club 36). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 45 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Keeping: 21 catches + 4 stumpings + 10 run outs (4 direct, 6 assisted) in 98 matches — 0.36 dismissals per match.
Batting
1,688 runs in 98 innings, adjusted average 20.9, strike rate 63.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 20 wickets from 59.0 overs across 24 matches bowled in (of 98 played) — 0.20 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
