Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 39.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Economy of 3.17 is excellent but a wicket every 78 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
0.22 dismissals per match across 49 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 9 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 29 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.62 for the level played (1st grade 2 · Rep Div 1 40 · Club 7). 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: 9 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 49 matches — 0.22 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 54 innings at 19.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 15 wickets in 31 matches bowled in (of 49 played) — 0.48 per match at 41.5, economy 3.17, strike rate 78.4.
