Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 55.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.3.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.05.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 68 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.48 for the level played (Rep Div 1 6 · 2nd grade 4 · 3rd grade 14 · Club 1 · 4th grade 6). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 31 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 17 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 52 matches — 0.37 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 29 innings at 18.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 76 wickets in 48 matches bowled in (of 52 played) — 1.58 per match at 13.3, economy 3.05, strike rate 26.1.
