Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 60.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

Strengths

  • ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 31.7.
  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 6 hundred(s), best of 164.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 63 catches in 173 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 10 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 38 × 40% · Batting 59 × 30% · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.44 for the level played (1st grade 56 · Rep Div 1 4 · Club 113). 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: 63 catches + 10 run outs (10 direct, 0 assisted) in 173 matches — 0.42 per match.
Batting
5,002 runs in 185 innings, adjusted average 31.7, strike rate 60.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 23 wickets from 108.8 overs across 33 matches bowled in (of 173 played) — 0.13 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
