Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 53.2 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 5% of 50+ scores become hundreds (37 fifties, 2 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.40 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 33.3.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 106.
- ✓ Safe hands — 80 catches in 198 matches (0.40 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 31 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 40% · Batting 60 × 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 39). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 39 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 47 catches + 31 stumpings + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 198 matches — 0.40 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 4,952 runs in 190 innings, adjusted average 33.3, strike rate 53.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 13 wickets from 41.0 overs across 10 matches bowled in (of 198 played) — 0.07 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
