Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 20.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 12.1.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.00.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 24 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 18 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 63 × 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 24). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 24 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 12 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 47 matches — 0.28 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 45 innings at 16.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 126 wickets in 45 matches bowled in (of 47 played) — 2.80 per match at 12.1, economy 3.00, strike rate 24.2.
