Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 27.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
high
Fielding
Catching return too low for selection
Only 0.14 catches per match over 36 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
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.5.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.02.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting 39 × 30% · Bowling 57 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.60 for the level played (State competition 5 · Rep Div 1 20 · 3rd grade 7 · Club 3 · 4th grade 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: 5 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 36 matches — 0.25 per match.
- Batting
- 593 runs in 32 innings, adjusted average 21.4, strike rate 27.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 35 wickets in 31 matches bowled in (of 36 played) — 1.13 per match at 16.5, economy 3.02, strike rate 32.7.
