Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 59.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.1.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.23.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 23 catches in 65 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 58 × 40% · Batting 49 × 30% · Bowling 63 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.50 for the level played (1st grade 6 · Rep Div 1 23 · 3rd grade 14 · Club 19 · 4th grade 3). 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: 23 catches + 6 run outs (6 direct, 0 assisted) in 65 matches — 0.45 per match.
Batting
981 runs in 59 innings, adjusted average 22.3, strike rate 59.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
54 wickets in 42 matches bowled in (of 65 played) — 1.29 per match at 15.1, economy 3.23, strike rate 28.1.
