Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 62.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.65 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 3 hundred(s), best of 122.
- ✓ Safe hands — 93 catches in 143 matches (0.65 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 13 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 18 × 40% · Batting 62 × 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 6). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 6 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 66 catches + 13 stumpings + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 143 matches — 0.57 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 3,338 runs in 140 innings, adjusted average 28.1, strike rate 62.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 0 wickets from 1.0 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 143 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
