Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 40.4 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 3.49 is excellent but a wicket every 42 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 3 hundred(s), best of 112.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 30 catches in 79 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 34 × 40% · Batting 63 × 30% · Bowling 34 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.76 for the level played (1st grade 54 · 2nd grade 25). 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: 30 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 79 matches — 0.38 per match.
Batting
1,620 runs in 80 innings, adjusted average 24.1, strike rate 40.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
53 wickets in 55 matches bowled in (of 79 played) — 0.96 per match at 24.6, economy 3.49, strike rate 42.4.
