Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 50.5 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 10% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (13 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.54 is excellent but a wicket every 45 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.54.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 12 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 46 × 40% · Batting 61 × 30% · Bowling 35 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.78 for the level played (1st grade 36 · Club 5). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 41 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 73 catches + 12 run outs (6 direct, 6 assisted) in 234 matches — 0.36 per match.
Batting
2,911 runs in 196 innings, adjusted average 18.3, strike rate 50.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
228 wickets in 208 matches bowled in (of 234 played) — 1.10 per match at 26.4, economy 3.54, strike rate 44.7.
