Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 54.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

8 of 13 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.

high Fielding
Catching return too low for selection

Only 0.12 catches per match over 17 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.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.01 is excellent but a wicket every 42 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 100.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.01.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 13 × 40% · Batting 49 × 30% · Bowling 55 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.30 for the level played (Club 17). 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: 2 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 17 matches — 0.12 per match.
Batting
278 runs in 16 innings, adjusted average 20.6, strike rate 54.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
10 wickets in 11 matches bowled in (of 17 played) — 0.91 per match at 21.0, economy 3.01, strike rate 41.9.
