Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 60.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
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 15.7.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.13.
- ✓ Safe hands — 28 catches in 64 matches (0.44 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 13 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 64 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 65 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.33 for the level played (Rep Div 1 5 · Club 53 · 5th grade and below 6). 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: 28 catches + 13 run outs (13 direct, 0 assisted) in 64 matches — 0.64 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 61 innings at 19.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 39 wickets in 42 matches bowled in (of 64 played) — 0.93 per match at 15.7, economy 3.13, strike rate 30.2.
