- ● Body of work — 33 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 49.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
20 of 28 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
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.
0.24 dismissals per match across 33 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.66.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 40% · Batting 41 × 30% · Bowling 57 × 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 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 6 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 33 matches — 0.24 per match.
- Batting
- 573 runs in 35 innings, adjusted average 19.7, strike rate 49.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 41 wickets in 28 matches bowled in (of 33 played) — 1.46 per match at 20.1, economy 3.66, strike rate 33.0.
