Critical recommendations

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

14 of 18 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 13% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Strengths

  • ✓ Scores quickly (SR 90.6) without sacrificing consistency.
  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.3.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.28.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 8 catches in 22 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting 50 × 30% · Bowling 61 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.33 for the level played (Rep Div 1 1 · Club 21). 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: 8 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 22 matches — 0.36 per match.
Batting
424 runs in 23 innings, adjusted average 22.4, strike rate 90.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
40 wickets in 20 matches bowled in (of 22 played) — 2.00 per match at 17.3, economy 3.28, strike rate 31.6.
