Critical recommendations
high
Bowling
Conceding too many extras
0.8 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 17% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 25 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 57 × 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 (Club 17). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 17 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 11 catches + 4 run outs (3 direct, 1 assisted) in 49 matches — 0.31 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 35 innings at 20.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 24 wickets in 41 matches bowled in (of 49 played) — 0.59 per match at 18.5, economy 4.48, strike rate 24.7.
