Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 61.2 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 2.93 is excellent but a wicket every 40 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 39.0.
  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 6 hundred(s), best of 145.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.93.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 40% · Batting 62 × 30% · Bowling 52 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.41 for the level played (National competition 8 · Rep Div 1 9 · 2nd grade 16 · 3rd grade 7 · Club 81 · 4th 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: 27 catches + 6 run outs (6 direct, 0 assisted) in 123 matches — 0.27 per match.
Batting
3,826 runs in 116 innings, adjusted average 39.0, strike rate 61.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
161 wickets in 97 matches bowled in (of 123 played) — 1.66 per match at 19.6, economy 2.93, strike rate 40.2.
