Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 49.8 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.31 is excellent but a wicket every 48 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.31.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 64 catches in 151 matches (0.42 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 61 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 36 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.60 for the level played (1st grade 21 · Rep Div 1 13 · 2nd grade 83 · 3rd grade 15 · Club 17 · 4th grade 2). 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: 64 catches + 9 run outs (9 direct, 0 assisted) in 151 matches — 0.48 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 62 innings at 16.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
170 wickets in 145 matches bowled in (of 151 played) — 1.17 per match at 26.3, economy 3.31, strike rate 47.6.
