Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 54.7 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

18 of 25 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.23 dismissals per match across 35 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 12.8.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.86.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting 36 × 30% · Bowling 68 × 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 35). 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: 8 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 35 matches — 0.23 per match.
Batting
496 runs in 35 innings, adjusted average 18.2, strike rate 54.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
44 wickets in 27 matches bowled in (of 35 played) — 1.63 per match at 12.8, economy 2.86, strike rate 26.8.
