Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 61.0 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.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 52 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.38 for the level played (Rep Div 1 7 · Club 33). 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: 10 catches + 6 run outs (2 direct, 4 assisted) in 61 matches — 0.26 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 43 innings at 17.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 27 wickets in 42 matches bowled in (of 61 played) — 0.64 per match at 24.4, economy 4.07, strike rate 36.0.
