Critical recommendations
high
Fielding
Catching return too low for selection
Only 0.11 catches per match over 92 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 3.91 is excellent but a wicket every 40 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 33.2.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 5 hundred(s), best of 190.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting 59 × 30% · Bowling 39 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.32 for the level played (Rep Div 1 5 · Club 87). 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: 10 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 92 matches — 0.14 per match.
- Batting
- 2,658 runs in 89 innings, adjusted average 33.2, strike rate 87.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 53 wickets in 44 matches bowled in (of 92 played) — 1.20 per match at 26.4, economy 3.91, strike rate 40.5.
