Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 51.7 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 3.21 is excellent but a wicket every 47 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 — 9 hundred(s), best of 164.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.21.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 57 catches in 149 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 47 × 40% · Batting 73 × 30% · Bowling 43 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.56 for the level played (1st grade 101 · Rep Div 1 6 · 2nd grade 2 · Rep Div 2 2 · Club 38). 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: 57 catches + 7 run outs (7 direct, 0 assisted) in 149 matches — 0.43 per match.
Batting
4,398 runs in 156 innings, adjusted average 33.3, strike rate 51.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
152 wickets in 113 matches bowled in (of 149 played) — 1.35 per match at 24.9, economy 3.21, strike rate 46.7.
