Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 40.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Only 0.13 catches per match over 15 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 12 × 40% · Batting 35 × 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
- ×0.34 for the level played (Rep Div 1 4 · Club 11). 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: 2 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 15 matches — 0.13 per match.
- Batting
- 281 runs in 14 innings, adjusted average 27.2, strike rate 40.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 1 wicket from 12.7 overs across 5 matches bowled in (of 15 played) — 0.07 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
