Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 51.4 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.58 is excellent but a wicket every 47 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 108.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.58.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting 45 × 30% · Bowling 34 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.73 for the level played (1st grade 143 · Rep Div 1 4 · 2nd grade 40 · 3rd grade 5 · Club 8 · 4th grade 1). 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: 52 catches + 8 run outs (8 direct, 0 assisted) in 201 matches — 0.30 per match.
Batting
2,920 runs in 165 innings, adjusted average 22.7, strike rate 51.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
203 wickets in 177 matches bowled in (of 201 played) — 1.15 per match at 27.9, economy 3.58, strike rate 46.7.
