Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 56.2 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 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.52 is excellent but a wicket every 50 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 129.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.52.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 40% · Batting 60 × 30% · Bowling 36 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.68 for the level played (1st grade 18 · Rep Div 1 4 · 2nd grade 40 · 3rd grade 8 · Club 1). 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: 23 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 71 matches — 0.35 per match.
Batting
1,198 runs in 70 innings, adjusted average 18.8, strike rate 56.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
66 wickets in 60 matches bowled in (of 71 played) — 1.10 per match at 29.4, economy 3.52, strike rate 50.1.
