Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 42.8 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Out for 0 in 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Economy of 3.67 is excellent but a wicket every 43 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
0.15 dismissals per match across 41 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 15 × 40% · Batting 49 × 30% · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.52 for the level played (Rep Div 1 11 · 2nd grade 8 · 3rd grade 15 · Club 4 · 4th grade 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: 5 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 41 matches — 0.12 per match.
- Batting
- 611 runs in 35 innings, adjusted average 19.0, strike rate 42.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 18 wickets from 129.0 overs across 21 matches bowled in (of 41 played) — 0.86 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
