Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 48.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

11 of 13 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.87 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 34.6.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 13 catches in 15 matches (0.87 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 79 × 40% · Batting 59 × 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 15). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 15 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 13 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 15 matches — 1.00 per match.
Batting
452 runs in 14 innings, adjusted average 34.6, strike rate 48.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
