Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 57.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.69.
- ✓ Safe hands — 21 catches in 59 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 44 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 60 × 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 40). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 21 catches + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 59 matches — 0.41 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 53 innings at 15.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 82 wickets in 54 matches bowled in (of 59 played) — 1.52 per match at 20.1, economy 3.69, strike rate 32.7.
