Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 55.8 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.22 dismissals per match across 60 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 12.3.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.15.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 24 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 40% · Batting 42 × 30% · Bowling 70 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.35 for the level played (Rep Div 1 4 · Rep Div 2 7 · Club 49). 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: 7 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 60 matches — 0.17 per match.
Batting
604 runs in 50 innings, adjusted average 17.2, strike rate 55.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
38 wickets in 53 matches bowled in (of 60 played) — 0.72 per match at 12.3, economy 3.15, strike rate 23.5.
