Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 52.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 25% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Strengths

  • ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 32.2.
  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.1.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.47.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 24 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting 55 × 30% · Bowling 63 × 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 9). 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: 4 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 9 matches — 0.44 per match.
Batting
229 runs in 8 innings, adjusted average 32.2, strike rate 52.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
14 wickets in 8 matches bowled in (of 9 played) — 1.75 per match at 14.1, economy 3.47, strike rate 24.4.
