Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 50.6 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
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 38 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 51 × 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 72). 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: 24 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 72 matches — 0.39 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 71 innings at 17.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 45 wickets in 43 matches bowled in (of 72 played) — 1.05 per match at 19.8, economy 3.98, strike rate 29.8.
