Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 48.4 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 41 × 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 37). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 37 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 14 catches + 7 run outs (5 direct, 2 assisted) in 60 matches — 0.35 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 56 innings at 16.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 35 wickets in 56 matches bowled in (of 60 played) — 0.62 per match at 16.8, economy 3.75, strike rate 26.8.
