Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 52.1 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 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.4.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.64.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 59 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.41 for the level played (Rep Div 1 10 · Club 34). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 44 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 25 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 85 matches — 0.32 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 64 innings at 17.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 95 wickets in 79 matches bowled in (of 85 played) — 1.20 per match at 17.4, economy 3.64, strike rate 28.7.
