Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 41.7 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
high
Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball
3 of 4 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 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
- ×0.67 for the level played (Rep Div 1 3 · Club 3). 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
- Outfield: 3 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 6 matches — 0.50 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 5 innings at 16.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 1 wicket from 8.0 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 6 played) — 0.17 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
