Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 50.2 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
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.
0.23 dismissals per match across 13 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Bowling average (46.8) beats batting average (23.3) — selection case is as a bowling all-rounder; protect bowling workload first.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 46 × 40% · Batting 44 × 30% · Bowling 13 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.36 for the level played (2nd grade 8 · Club 5). 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: 2 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 13 matches — 0.23 per match.
- Batting
- 321 runs in 17 innings, adjusted average 23.3, strike rate 50.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 5 wickets in 6 matches bowled in (of 13 played) — 0.83 per match at 46.8, economy 4.11, strike rate 68.4.
