Critical recommendations

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 15% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.96 is excellent but a wicket every 59 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 11 catches in 28 matches (0.39 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 40% · Batting 55 × 30% · Bowling 25 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.30 for the level played (Club 28). 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: 11 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 28 matches — 0.43 per match.
Batting
641 runs in 27 innings, adjusted average 25.5, strike rate 83.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
9 wickets in 19 matches bowled in (of 28 played) — 0.47 per match at 38.7, economy 3.96, strike rate 58.6.
