Critical recommendations

high Fielding
Catching return too low for selection

Only 0.14 catches per match over 36 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.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 2.61 is excellent but a wicket every 49 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.61.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 40% · Batting 43 × 30% · Bowling 49 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.30 for the level played (Club 36). 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: 5 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 36 matches — 0.19 per match.
Batting
653 runs in 35 innings, adjusted average 20.8, strike rate 68.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
26 wickets in 28 matches bowled in (of 36 played) — 0.93 per match at 21.3, economy 2.61, strike rate 49.0.
