Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 45.3 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 3.76 is excellent but a wicket every 42 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.76.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 40% · Batting 57 × 30% · Bowling 51 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.70 for the level played (1st grade 19 · 2nd grade 1 · 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: 7 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 21 matches — 0.33 per match.
Batting
443 runs in 18 innings, adjusted average 28.7, strike rate 45.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
37 wickets in 19 matches bowled in (of 21 played) — 1.95 per match at 26.4, economy 3.76, strike rate 42.1.
