Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 54.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
1.4 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.
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.
0.35 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.
0.50 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 16.8.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 19 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 13 catches in 26 matches (0.50 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 26). 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
- Keeping: 9 catches + 0 stumpings + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 26 matches — 0.42 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 26 innings at 16.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 19 wickets in 25 matches bowled in (of 26 played) — 0.76 per match at 16.8, economy 5.36, strike rate 18.8.
