Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 45.6 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 28 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 54 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.28 for the level played (State competition 2 · Club 49 · 4th grade 4 · 5th grade and below 37). 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: 31 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 92 matches — 0.37 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 71 innings at 16.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 56 wickets in 58 matches bowled in (of 92 played) — 0.97 per match at 20.2, economy 3.82, strike rate 31.6.
