Critical recommendations

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

48 of 63 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 9% of 50+ scores become hundreds (10 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 111.
  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.7.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.80.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 40% · Batting 55 × 30% · Bowling 64 × 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 68). 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: 16 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 68 matches — 0.24 per match.
Batting
1,706 runs in 67 innings, adjusted average 27.0, strike rate 76.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
54 wickets in 37 matches bowled in (of 68 played) — 1.46 per match at 17.7, economy 3.80, strike rate 28.0.
