Critical recommendations
highBatting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 57.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
mediumBatting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 15% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
infoFielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.40 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
✓ Safe hands — 37 catches in 92 matches (0.40 per match), a genuine selection asset.
✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 22 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 46 × 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
×0.48 for the level played (Rep Div 1 13 · Rep Div 2 17 · Club 13). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 43 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 30 catches + 22 run outs (7 direct, 15 assisted) in 92 matches — 0.57 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 87 innings at 15.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 24 wickets from 81.2 overs across 35 matches bowled in (of 92 played) — 0.26 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
