Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 60.8 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 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (6 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

medium Fielding
Keeping dismissal rate below par

0.38 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Effective lower-order runs — adjusted average 33.1 (frequently not out).
  • ✓ Safe hands — 29 catches in 60 matches (0.48 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 45 × 40% · Batting 46 × 30% · Bowling 53 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.30 for the level played (Club 60). 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
Keeping: 21 catches + 2 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 60 matches — 0.38 dismissals per match.
Batting
1,161 runs in 53 innings, adjusted average 33.1, strike rate 60.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
52 wickets in 39 matches bowled in (of 60 played) — 1.33 per match at 20.5, economy 3.91, strike rate 31.5.
