Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 63.5 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 12% 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 17.8.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.45.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 15 catches in 42 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 42 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 54 × 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 37). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 37 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 15 catches + 4 run outs (3 direct, 1 assisted) in 42 matches — 0.45 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 33 innings at 21.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
53 wickets in 40 matches bowled in (of 42 played) — 1.32 per match at 17.8, economy 3.45, strike rate 30.9.
