Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 58.5 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 10% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.40.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 27 × 40% · Batting 39 × 30% · Bowling 51 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.42 for the level played (Rep Div 1 29 · Club 50). 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: 20 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 79 matches — 0.32 per match.
- Batting
- 1,364 runs in 76 innings, adjusted average 22.4, strike rate 58.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 27 wickets in 39 matches bowled in (of 79 played) — 0.69 per match at 22.1, economy 3.40, strike rate 39.0.
