Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 29.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

4 of 4 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.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 2.23 is excellent but a wicket every 63 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

info General
Small sample size

Only 4 batting innings imported — import more of this player's matches before treating these findings as conclusive.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.23.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 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
×1.00 for the level played (National competition 4). 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: 2 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 4 matches — 0.50 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 4 innings at 27.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
3 wickets in 2 matches bowled in (of 4 played) — 0.75 per match at 23.3, economy 2.23, strike rate 62.7.
