Critical recommendations
22 of 28 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Economy of 3.56 is excellent but a wicket every 53 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
0.70 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 46.1.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 4 hundred(s), best of 143.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.56.
- ✓ Safe hands — 19 catches in 27 matches (0.70 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 58 × 40% · Batting 87 × 30% · Bowling 32 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.85 for the level played (1st grade 27). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
