Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 49.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.3.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.13.
- ✓ Safe hands — 19 catches in 49 matches (0.39 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 36 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 64 × 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 13 · Club 34). 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: 19 catches + 7 run outs (7 direct, 0 assisted) in 49 matches — 0.53 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 40 innings at 16.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 93 wickets in 47 matches bowled in (of 49 played) — 1.98 per match at 14.3, economy 3.13, strike rate 27.3.
