Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 53.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Going at 6.35 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Out for 0 in 10% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.21 dismissals per match across 19 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 24 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.42 for the level played (Rep Div 1 5 · Club 14). 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: 3 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 19 matches — 0.21 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 19 innings at 20.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 9 wickets in 8 matches bowled in (of 19 played) — 1.12 per match at 28.6, economy 6.35, strike rate 27.0.
