Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 49.0 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 (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 34 catches in 38 matches (0.89 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 7 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 62 × 40% · Batting 44 × 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 21). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 21 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Keeping: 32 catches + 7 stumpings + 8 run outs (1 direct, 7 assisted) in 38 matches — 1.24 dismissals per match.
Batting
625 runs in 32 innings, adjusted average 22.6, strike rate 49.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
