Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 54.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
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.
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (8 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 6 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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 14). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 14 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 36 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 135 matches — 0.30 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 139 innings at 15.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 126 wickets from 724.5 overs across 92 matches bowled in (of 135 played) — 1.37 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
