Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 44.9 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 (9 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
medium
Bowling
Tight but not threatening
Economy of 3.36 is excellent but a wicket every 50 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 23 catches in 65 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 48 × 40% · Batting 53 × 30% · Bowling 20 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.59 for the level played (1st grade 11 · 2nd grade 35 · 3rd grade 17 · 4th grade 2). 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: 23 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 65 matches — 0.43 per match.
- Batting
- 1,336 runs in 61 innings, adjusted average 24.8, strike rate 44.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 28 wickets in 36 matches bowled in (of 65 played) — 0.78 per match at 28.3, economy 3.36, strike rate 50.4.
