Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 53.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (5 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
1.36 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 57 catches in 42 matches (1.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 93 × 40% · Batting 57 × 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 28). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 28 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 57 catches + 4 stumpings + 8 run outs (0 direct, 8 assisted) in 42 matches — 1.64 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 779 runs in 35 innings, adjusted average 28.0, strike rate 53.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 0 wickets from 1.0 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 42 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
