Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 63.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

Strengths

  • ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 35.2.
  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 4 hundred(s), best of 124.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 40% · Batting 76 × 30% · Bowling 51 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.45 for the level played (1st grade 6 · 2nd grade 5 · Club 21). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 32 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 12 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 43 matches — 0.28 per match.
Batting
1,281 runs in 40 innings, adjusted average 35.2, strike rate 63.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
21 wickets in 22 matches bowled in (of 43 played) — 0.95 per match at 23.1, economy 4.12, strike rate 33.7.
