Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 63.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
9 of 13 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
1.3 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 34 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 54 × 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 22). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 22 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 6 catches + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 32 matches — 0.28 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 27 innings at 16.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 21 wickets in 29 matches bowled in (of 32 played) — 0.72 per match at 19.1, economy 5.01, strike rate 22.9.
