Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 61.2 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
- ✓ Effective lower-order runs — adjusted average 38.8 (frequently not out).
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.1.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.43.
- ✓ Safe hands — 18 catches in 47 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 43 × 40% · Batting 60 × 30% · Bowling 65 × 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 40). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 18 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 47 matches — 0.40 per match.
- Batting
- 1,021 runs in 45 innings, adjusted average 38.8, strike rate 61.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 27 wickets in 30 matches bowled in (of 47 played) — 0.90 per match at 15.1, economy 3.43, strike rate 26.3.
