Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 62.5 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 10% 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 10% of 50+ scores become hundreds (9 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.94 is excellent but a wicket every 42 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.17 dismissals per match across 93 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 40 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.48 for the level played (National competition 5 · 1st grade 38 · 2nd grade 2 · Club 48). 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: 15 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 93 matches — 0.16 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 95 innings at 21.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
91 wickets in 83 matches bowled in (of 93 played) — 1.10 per match at 27.7, economy 3.94, strike rate 42.1.
