Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 55.8 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 3 hundred(s), best of 181.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.6.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.18.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 40% · Batting 70 × 30% · Bowling 57 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.63 for the level played (1st grade 32 · 2nd grade 38 · 3rd grade 8 · Club 5 · 5th grade and below 1). 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: 19 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 84 matches — 0.27 per match.
- Batting
- 1,251 runs in 61 innings, adjusted average 27.2, strike rate 55.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 126 wickets in 75 matches bowled in (of 84 played) — 1.68 per match at 17.6, economy 3.18, strike rate 33.2.
