Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 60.9 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 12% 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 12% of 50+ scores become hundreds (15 fifties, 2 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.5.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.98.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 65 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.37 for the level played (Rep Div 1 39 · 3rd grade 5 · Rep Div 2 4 · Club 113 · 4th grade 22 · 5th grade and below 6). 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: 58 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 189 matches — 0.31 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 186 innings at 21.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 134 wickets in 112 matches bowled in (of 189 played) — 1.20 per match at 14.5, economy 2.98, strike rate 29.3.
