Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 56.4 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 13% 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 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (8 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.26.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 39 catches in 108 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 27 × 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
×0.32 for the level played (Rep Div 1 5 · Club 103). 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: 39 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 108 matches — 0.38 per match.
Batting
1,741 runs in 92 innings, adjusted average 22.0, strike rate 56.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
111 wickets in 78 matches bowled in (of 108 played) — 1.42 per match at 19.3, economy 3.26, strike rate 35.5.
