Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 47.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Only 14% of 50+ scores become hundreds (6 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Economy of 3.01 is excellent but a wicket every 44 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
0.51 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 104.
- ✓ Safe hands — 30 catches in 59 matches (0.51 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 52 × 40% · Batting 47 × 30% · Bowling 18 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.44 for the level played (1st grade 2 · 2nd grade 9 · 3rd grade 46 · 4th grade 2). 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: 30 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 59 matches — 0.53 per match.
- Batting
- 1,525 runs in 64 innings, adjusted average 26.8, strike rate 47.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 37 wickets in 31 matches bowled in (of 59 played) — 1.19 per match at 21.8, economy 3.01, strike rate 43.5.
