Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 31.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Only 0.14 catches per match over 29 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 14 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 27 × 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 (State competition 4 · Rep Div 1 5 · Club 20). 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: 4 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 29 matches — 0.14 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 25 innings at 17.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 9 wickets in 20 matches bowled in (of 29 played) — 0.45 per match at 22.2, economy 4.96, strike rate 26.9.
