Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 58.7 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 11% of 50+ scores become hundreds (8 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 114.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 19 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting 50 × 30% · Bowling 21 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.40 for the level played (Rep Div 1 33 · Rep Div 2 16 · Club 112). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
Fielding
Outfield: 34 catches + 19 run outs (19 direct, 0 assisted) in 161 matches — 0.33 per match.
Batting
2,704 runs in 143 innings, adjusted average 24.3, strike rate 58.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
30 wickets in 65 matches bowled in (of 161 played) — 0.46 per match at 21.9, economy 4.15, strike rate 31.7.
