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 10% 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
0.44 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.2.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.11.
- ✓ Safe hands — 35 catches in 80 matches (0.44 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 56 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.30 for the level played (Rep Div 1 1 · Club 79). 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: 35 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 80 matches — 0.46 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 59 innings at 16.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 119 wickets in 73 matches bowled in (of 80 played) — 1.63 per match at 16.2, economy 3.11, strike rate 31.2.
