Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 56.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (14 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.20 is excellent but a wicket every 42 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.20.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 16 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 45 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.93 for the level played (National competition 166 · 1st grade 152 · Rep Div 1 26 · 2nd grade 18 · 3rd grade 6 · Club 8). 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: 121 catches + 16 run outs (16 direct, 0 assisted) in 376 matches — 0.36 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 242 innings at 17.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
521 wickets in 312 matches bowled in (of 376 played) — 1.67 per match at 22.7, economy 3.20, strike rate 42.5.
