Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 63.2 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 10% of 50+ scores become hundreds (17 fifties, 2 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 2.66 is excellent but a wicket every 44 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.53 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 108.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.66.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 178 catches in 338 matches (0.53 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 50 × 40% · Batting 48 × 30% · Bowling 46 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.69 for the level played (1st grade 212 · 2nd grade 98 · 3rd grade 19 · Club 2 · 4th grade 7). 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: 178 catches + 9 run outs (9 direct, 0 assisted) in 338 matches — 0.55 per match.
Batting
5,369 runs in 316 innings, adjusted average 20.5, strike rate 63.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
509 wickets in 305 matches bowled in (of 338 played) — 1.67 per match at 19.7, economy 2.66, strike rate 44.5.
