Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 53.3 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.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.53 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 8.3.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.32.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 15 balls.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 20 catches in 38 matches (0.53 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 55 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 79 × 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 38). 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 (0 direct, 5 assisted) in 38 matches — 0.66 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 26 innings at 16.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
57 wickets in 36 matches bowled in (of 38 played) — 1.58 per match at 8.3, economy 3.32, strike rate 14.9.
