Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 63.3 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 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 4 hundred(s), best of 212.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 32 × 40% · Batting 68 × 30% · Bowling 32 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.76 for the level played (1st grade 159 · 2nd grade 22 · Club 5). 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: 58 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 186 matches — 0.33 per match.

3,942 runs in 199 innings, adjusted average 21.3, strike rate 63.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).

13 wickets in 10 matches bowled in (of 186 played) — 0.07 per match at 13.0, economy 2.78, strike rate 28.1.
