Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 52.8 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 16.4.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.14.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 34 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 62 × 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 (1st grade 2 · Rep Div 1 12 · 2nd grade 16 · 3rd grade 4 · Club 53 · 4th grade 1). 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: 26 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 88 matches — 0.35 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 64 innings at 18.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 129 wickets in 83 matches bowled in (of 88 played) — 1.55 per match at 16.4, economy 3.14, strike rate 31.4.
