Critical recommendations
Only 0.06 catches per match over 16 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.
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 169.3) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 101.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.6.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.75.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting 40 × 30% · Bowling 65 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.40 for the level played (2nd grade 5 · 3rd grade 8 · 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: 1 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 16 matches — 0.12 per match.
- Batting
- 462 runs in 17 innings, adjusted average 27.2, strike rate 169.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 12 wickets in 8 matches bowled in (of 16 played) — 1.50 per match at 17.6, economy 3.75, strike rate 28.2.
