Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 37.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.46 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.5.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.73.
- ✓ Safe hands — 21 catches in 46 matches (0.46 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 32 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 59 × 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 46). 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: 21 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 46 matches — 0.46 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 47 innings at 25.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 38 wickets in 29 matches bowled in (of 46 played) — 1.31 per match at 13.5, economy 2.73, strike rate 29.6.
