Critical recommendations
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 3.54 is excellent but a wicket every 46 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
0.57 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Bowling average (27.0) beats batting average (18.5) — selection case is as a bowling all-rounder; protect bowling workload first.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.54.
- ✓ Safe hands — 12 catches in 21 matches (0.57 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting 50 × 30% · Bowling 54 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.27 for the level played (3rd grade 2 · 4th grade 3 · 5th grade and below 16). 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: 12 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 21 matches — 0.57 per match.
- Batting
- 399 runs in 25 innings, adjusted average 18.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 16 wickets in 17 matches bowled in (of 21 played) — 0.94 per match at 27.0, economy 3.54, strike rate 45.8.
