Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 46.4 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

7 of 9 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 100.
  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.6.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.65.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 9 catches in 10 matches (0.90 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 74 × 40% · Batting 54 × 30% · Bowling 60 × 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 10). 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 + 2 run outs (0 direct, 2 assisted) in 10 matches — 1.10 per match.
Batting
283 runs in 12 innings, adjusted average 29.5, strike rate 46.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
12 wickets in 9 matches bowled in (of 10 played) — 1.33 per match at 15.6, economy 2.65, strike rate 35.3.
