Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 40.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.90 is excellent but a wicket every 42 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 11 catches in 25 matches (0.44 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 14 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 51 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.49 for the level played (1st grade 7 · 2nd grade 13 · Club 5). 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: 9 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 25 matches — 0.36 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 17 innings at 17.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
33 wickets in 23 matches bowled in (of 25 played) — 1.43 per match at 27.4, economy 3.90, strike rate 42.1.
