  • ● Regional representative — 8 matches (+1.2)
  • ● Body of work — 45 imported matches (+0.9)

Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 53.2 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

21 of 29 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.51.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 17 catches in 45 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 10 × 40% · Batting 50 × 30% · Bowling 61 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.20 for the level played (5th grade and below 8). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 8 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 17 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 45 matches — 0.38 per match.
Batting
588 runs in 34 innings, adjusted average 19.8, strike rate 53.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
63 wickets in 36 matches bowled in (of 45 played) — 1.75 per match at 18.1, economy 3.51, strike rate 31.0.
