Critical recommendations

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 2.59 is excellent but a wicket every 46 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 49.3.
  • ✓ Scores quickly (SR 96.9) without sacrificing consistency.
  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 183.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.59.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 16 catches in 40 matches (0.40 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 40% · Batting 99 × 30% · Bowling 52 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.45 for the level played (1st grade 4 · 2nd grade 30 · Club 6). 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: 16 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 40 matches — 0.42 per match.
Batting
1,299 runs in 37 innings, adjusted average 49.3, strike rate 96.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
51 wickets in 34 matches bowled in (of 40 played) — 1.50 per match at 20.0, economy 2.59, strike rate 46.5.
