Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 55.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 31 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.32 for the level played (Rep Div 2 8 · Club 39). 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: 6 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 47 matches — 0.19 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 30 innings at 17.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 14 wickets in 37 matches bowled in (of 47 played) — 0.38 per match at 19.4, economy 3.37, strike rate 34.5.
