  • ● Body of work — 35 imported matches (+0.7)

Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 49.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

20 of 28 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.3.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.82.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting 38 × 30% · Bowling 66 × 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 25). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 25 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 7 catches + 4 run outs (0 direct, 4 assisted) in 35 matches — 0.31 per match.
Batting
588 runs in 32 innings, adjusted average 20.7, strike rate 49.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
37 wickets in 30 matches bowled in (of 35 played) — 1.23 per match at 13.3, economy 2.82, strike rate 28.2.
