Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 45.0 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 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (9 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 33 catches in 94 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 40% · Batting 48 × 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
×0.50 for the level played (1st grade 22 · 2nd grade 43 · 3rd grade 29). 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: 33 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 94 matches — 0.36 per match.
Batting
1,810 runs in 89 innings, adjusted average 24.7, strike rate 45.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 8 wickets from 75.0 overs across 14 matches bowled in (of 94 played) — 0.09 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
