Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 61.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (8 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.49 is excellent but a wicket every 41 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.49.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 40% · Batting 41 × 30% · Bowling 34 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.74 for the level played (1st grade 35 · Rep Div 1 9 · 2nd grade 71 · 3rd grade 7 · 4th grade 1 · 5th grade and below 2). 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: 33 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 125 matches — 0.28 per match.
Batting
1,893 runs in 97 innings, adjusted average 23.7, strike rate 61.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
179 wickets in 102 matches bowled in (of 125 played) — 1.75 per match at 23.7, economy 3.49, strike rate 40.7.
