Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 58.3 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.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.41 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 70 catches in 171 matches (0.41 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 18 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 45 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 58 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.49 for the level played (Rep Div 1 21 · Club 33). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 54 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 69 catches + 18 run outs (9 direct, 9 assisted) in 171 matches — 0.51 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 120 innings at 15.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
158 wickets in 154 matches bowled in (of 171 played) — 1.03 per match at 18.7, economy 3.92, strike rate 28.7.
