Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 44.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Only 0.14 catches per match over 63 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.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 32.1.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 4 hundred(s), best of 138.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 7 × 40% · Batting 61 × 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
- ×0.82 for the level played (1st grade 56 · 2nd grade 4 · 3rd grade 2 · 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: 9 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 63 matches — 0.16 per match.
- Batting
- 2,126 runs in 75 innings, adjusted average 32.1, strike rate 44.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 4 wickets from 19.0 overs across 7 matches bowled in (of 63 played) — 0.06 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
