Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 56.0 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 12% 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 30 × 40% · Batting 45 × 30% · Bowling 26 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.54 for the level played (Rep Div 1 25 · 3rd grade 5 · Club 24 · 4th grade 15). 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: 16 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 69 matches — 0.29 per match.
- Batting
- 1,044 runs in 61 innings, adjusted average 21.3, strike rate 56.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 31 wickets in 42 matches bowled in (of 69 played) — 0.74 per match at 21.3, economy 4.11, strike rate 31.2.
