Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 59.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Strengths

  • ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 41.2.
  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 5 hundred(s), best of 148.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.61.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 27 × 40% · Batting 79 × 30% · Bowling 60 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.71 for the level played (1st grade 32 · Club 11). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 43 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 22 catches + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 69 matches — 0.36 per match.
Batting
2,354 runs in 68 innings, adjusted average 41.2, strike rate 59.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
77 wickets in 63 matches bowled in (of 69 played) — 1.22 per match at 19.7, economy 3.61, strike rate 32.7.
