Critical recommendations
medium
Bowling
Tight but not threatening
Economy of 3.47 is excellent but a wicket every 41 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.67 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 63 catches in 94 matches (0.67 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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 9). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 9 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 52 catches + 5 run outs (3 direct, 2 assisted) in 94 matches — 0.61 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 94 innings at 31.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 28 wickets from 190.0 overs across 26 matches bowled in (of 94 played) — 0.30 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
