Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 56.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
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.

medium Batting
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.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.52 is excellent but a wicket every 48 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 106.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.52.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 45 × 40% · Batting 41 × 30% · Bowling 62 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.31 for the level played (3rd grade 1 · Club 9 · 4th grade 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 11 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 78 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 277 matches — 0.30 per match.
Batting
2,779 runs in 228 innings, adjusted average 15.1, strike rate 56.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
364 wickets in 261 matches bowled in (of 277 played) — 1.39 per match at 28.2, economy 3.52, strike rate 48.1.
