Critical recommendations

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.51 is excellent but a wicket every 41 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.45 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 — 3 hundred(s), best of 127.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.51.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 43 catches in 95 matches (0.45 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 42 × 40% · Batting 65 × 30% · Bowling 41 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.85 for the level played (1st grade 95). 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: 43 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 95 matches — 0.45 per match.
Batting
2,160 runs in 87 innings, adjusted average 29.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
187 wickets in 70 matches bowled in (of 95 played) — 2.67 per match at 24.2, economy 3.51, strike rate 41.3.
