Critical recommendations
medium
Bowling
Tight but not threatening
Economy of 2.58 is excellent but a wicket every 78 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 61 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 46 × 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 3). 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: 5 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 3 matches — 1.67 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 1 innings at 0.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 2 wickets in 3 matches — 0.67 per match at 33.5, economy 2.58, strike rate 78.0.
