Critical recommendations
medium
Bowling
Tight but not threatening
Economy of 3.31 is excellent but a wicket every 41 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 41.0.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 10 hundred(s), best of 192.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.31.
- ✓ Safe hands — 26 catches in 72 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 38 × 40% · Batting 83 × 30% · Bowling 44 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.80 for the level played (1st grade 70 · 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: 26 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 72 matches — 0.39 per match.
- Batting
- 3,008 runs in 79 innings, adjusted average 41.0, strike rate 77.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 37 wickets in 30 matches bowled in (of 72 played) — 1.23 per match at 22.4, economy 3.31, strike rate 40.7.
