Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 63.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.21 dismissals per match across 34 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.5.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting 42 × 30% · Bowling 60 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.61 for the level played (Rep Div 1 18 · Club 15 · 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: 6 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 34 matches — 0.21 per match.
Batting
596 runs in 32 innings, adjusted average 23.3, strike rate 63.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
30 wickets in 29 matches bowled in (of 34 played) — 1.03 per match at 17.5, economy 3.85, strike rate 27.2.
