Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 40.9 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 27% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.80 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 107.
  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 11.2.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.37.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 8 catches in 10 matches (0.80 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 62 × 40% · Batting 47 × 30% · Bowling 68 × 30%. 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 10). 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: 8 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 10 matches — 0.80 per match.
Batting
225 runs in 11 innings, adjusted average 22.3, strike rate 40.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
21 wickets in 9 matches bowled in (of 10 played) — 2.33 per match at 11.2, economy 2.37, strike rate 28.4.
