Critical recommendations

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

10 of 13 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.48 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.4.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.44.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 13 catches in 27 matches (0.48 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 40% · Batting 46 × 30% · Bowling 59 × 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 27). 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: 13 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 27 matches — 0.52 per match.
Batting
293 runs in 20 innings, adjusted average 19.8, strike rate 77.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
54 wickets in 26 matches bowled in (of 27 played) — 2.08 per match at 15.4, economy 2.44, strike rate 37.9.
