Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 62.1 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 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.09 is excellent but a wicket every 42 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.09.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 49 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.49 for the level played (1st grade 40 · 2nd grade 25 · 3rd grade 1 · Club 69). 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: 41 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 135 matches — 0.30 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 100 innings at 15.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
167 wickets in 128 matches bowled in (of 135 played) — 1.30 per match at 21.8, economy 3.09, strike rate 42.4.
