Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 51.7 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 11% of 50+ scores become hundreds (8 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
medium
Bowling
Tight but not threatening
Economy of 3.40 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 159.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.40.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 43 × 40% · Batting 41 × 30% · Bowling 29 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.85 for the level played (1st grade 9). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 9 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 43 catches + 9 run outs (8 direct, 1 assisted) in 148 matches — 0.35 per match.
- Batting
- 2,159 runs in 130 innings, adjusted average 19.7, strike rate 51.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 136 wickets in 132 matches bowled in (of 148 played) — 1.03 per match at 27.5, economy 3.40, strike rate 48.5.
