Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 57.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 100.
  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.8.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.17.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 32 × 40% · Batting 62 × 30% · Bowling 65 × 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 (Rep Div 1 10 · Club 22). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 32 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 25 catches + 8 run outs (3 direct, 5 assisted) in 73 matches — 0.45 per match.
Batting
1,022 runs in 58 innings, adjusted average 21.3, strike rate 57.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
89 wickets in 70 matches bowled in (of 73 played) — 1.27 per match at 15.8, economy 3.17, strike rate 30.0.
