Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 52.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

high Fielding
Catching return too low for selection

Only 0.14 catches per match over 69 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 Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.19 is excellent but a wicket every 40 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.19.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 19 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 52 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.76 for the level played (1st grade 43 · 2nd grade 23 · 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: 10 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 69 matches — 0.17 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 46 innings at 16.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
74 wickets in 60 matches bowled in (of 69 played) — 1.23 per match at 21.4, economy 3.19, strike rate 40.3.
