Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 51.7 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 48 × 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 83). 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: 28 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 83 matches — 0.34 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 77 innings at 17.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 41 wickets in 46 matches bowled in (of 83 played) — 0.89 per match at 23.3, economy 4.04, strike rate 34.7.
