Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 41.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Out for 0 in 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 3.66 is excellent but a wicket every 43 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 22 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.59 for the level played (State competition 5 · 1st grade 9 · Club 12). 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: 5 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 26 matches — 0.27 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 22 innings at 16.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 9 wickets in 10 matches bowled in (of 26 played) — 0.35 per match at 26.4, economy 3.66, strike rate 43.3.
