Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 55.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
12 of 23 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Only 0.13 catches per match over 31 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Out for 0 in 22% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.30.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 14 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 52 × 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 23). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 23 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 4 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 31 matches — 0.16 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 27 innings at 15.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 17 wickets in 19 matches bowled in (of 31 played) — 0.89 per match at 20.2, economy 3.30, strike rate 36.6.
