Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 53.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Only 0.07 catches per match over 69 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Bowling average (24.3) beats batting average (23.1) — selection case is as a bowling all-rounder; protect bowling workload first.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 10 × 40% · Batting 51 × 30% · Bowling 50 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.51 for the level played (Rep Div 1 20 · 2nd grade 4 · 3rd grade 2 · Club 37 · 4th grade 6). 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 + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 69 matches — 0.10 per match.
- Batting
- 1,126 runs in 67 innings, adjusted average 23.1, strike rate 53.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 36 wickets in 47 matches bowled in (of 69 played) — 0.77 per match at 24.3, economy 4.26, strike rate 34.3.
