Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 60.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Only 0.13 catches per match over 39 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.
29 of 40 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (11 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 11 × 40% · Batting 57 × 30% · Bowling 51 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.44 for the level played (1st grade 1 · 2nd grade 16 · 3rd grade 18 · 4th grade 4). 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 + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 39 matches — 0.21 per match.
- Batting
- 1,078 runs in 42 innings, adjusted average 26.9, strike rate 60.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 10 wickets in 10 matches bowled in (of 39 played) — 0.26 per match at 24.7, economy 4.42, strike rate 33.5.
