The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 33 balls (SR 152), then 50 to 100 in just 21 (SR 238) — more than double the tempo.

Critical recommendations
highBatting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 54.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
mediumBatting
High duck rate
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.
mediumBatting
Not converting fifties into hundreds
Only 12% of 50+ scores become hundreds (7 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
✓ Safe hands — 67 catches in 178 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 11 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 42 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 38 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.79 for the level played (1st grade 12 · 2nd grade 4). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 16 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 67 catches + 11 run outs (7 direct, 4 assisted) in 178 matches — 0.44 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 161 innings at 16.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
194 wickets in 154 matches bowled in (of 178 played) — 1.26 per match at 19.6, economy 4.29, strike rate 27.5.
