Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 56.8 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.22 dismissals per match across 88 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 31.1.
  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 4 hundred(s), best of 129.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 11 × 40% · Batting 75 × 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
×0.62 for the level played (1st grade 14 · 2nd grade 72 · 3rd grade 2). 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 88 matches — 0.18 per match.
Batting
2,841 runs in 103 innings, adjusted average 31.1, strike rate 56.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 8 wickets from 46.0 overs across 10 matches bowled in (of 88 played) — 0.09 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
