Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 56.4 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 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 11% of 50+ scores become hundreds (8 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.79 is excellent but a wicket every 42 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 104.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.79.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 36 × 40% · Batting 61 × 30% · Bowling 43 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.70 for the level played (1st grade 17 · 2nd grade 40 · Club 8). 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: 14 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 65 matches — 0.25 per match.
Batting
1,307 runs in 64 innings, adjusted average 23.0, strike rate 56.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
56 wickets in 54 matches bowled in (of 65 played) — 1.04 per match at 26.6, economy 3.79, strike rate 42.1.
