  • ● Body of work — 8 imported matches (+0.2)

Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 9.3 over 6 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

5 of 6 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 7 catches in 8 matches (0.88 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 71 × 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 5). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 5 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 5 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 8 matches — 0.75 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 6 innings at 9.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 1 wicket from 14.0 overs across 5 matches bowled in (of 8 played) — 0.20 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
