Critical recommendations
medium
Bowling
Tight but not threatening
Economy of 3.86 is excellent but a wicket every 107 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 13 catches in 35 matches (0.37 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting 44 × 30% · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.48 for the level played (1st grade 26 · 2nd grade 1 · Club 8). 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: 13 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 35 matches — 0.37 per match.
- Batting
- 651 runs in 35 innings, adjusted average 21.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 5 wickets from 88.8 overs across 19 matches bowled in (of 35 played) — 0.26 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
