Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 61.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Out for 0 in 17% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.62 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 24 catches in 39 matches (0.62 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 76 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 22). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 22 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 20 catches + 4 stumpings + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 39 matches — 0.67 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 36 innings at 17.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 17 wickets from 64.3 overs across 15 matches bowled in (of 39 played) — 0.44 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
