Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 55.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Out for 0 in 20% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.21 dismissals per match across 14 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 108.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 19 × 40% · Batting 65 × 30% · Bowling 26 × 30%. 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 13). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 13 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 3 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 14 matches — 0.21 per match.
- Batting
- 374 runs in 15 innings, adjusted average 29.9, strike rate 55.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 5 wickets in 5 matches bowled in (of 14 played) — 0.36 per match at 24.4, economy 4.07, strike rate 36.0.
