Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 62.4 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

5 of 7 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

medium Batting
High duck rate

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.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.48 is excellent but a wicket every 44 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 40.8.
  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 109.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.48.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 40% · Batting 68 × 30% · Bowling 50 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.62 for the level played (Rep Div 1 5 · Club 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: 3 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 8 matches — 0.38 per match.
Batting
290 runs in 8 innings, adjusted average 40.8, strike rate 62.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
9 wickets in 7 matches bowled in (of 8 played) — 1.29 per match at 25.6, economy 3.48, strike rate 44.0.
