Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 44.7 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 7% of 50+ scores become hundreds (13 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 103.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.18.
- ✓ Safe hands — 31 catches in 89 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 34 × 40% · Batting 36 × 30% · Bowling 59 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.72 for the level played (1st grade 52 · 2nd grade 36 · 4th grade 1). 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: 31 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 89 matches — 0.38 per match.
- Batting
- 1,885 runs in 90 innings, adjusted average 21.6, strike rate 44.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 35 wickets in 44 matches bowled in (of 89 played) — 0.80 per match at 20.0, economy 3.18, strike rate 37.7.
