Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 48.8 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Only 0.09 catches per match over 44 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Economy of 3.32 is excellent but a wicket every 49 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.32.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 8 × 40% · Batting 40 × 30% · Bowling 49 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.40 for the level played (1st grade 1 · 2nd grade 7 · 3rd grade 24 · Club 2 · 4th grade 9 · 5th grade and below 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: 4 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 44 matches — 0.11 per match.
- Batting
- 700 runs in 43 innings, adjusted average 20.8, strike rate 48.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 44 wickets in 39 matches bowled in (of 44 played) — 1.13 per match at 27.1, economy 3.32, strike rate 49.0.
