Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 59.8 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
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.
medium
Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (5 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.73.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 59 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.42 for the level played (Rep Div 1 9 · Club 26). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 35 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 34 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 114 matches — 0.32 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 104 innings at 16.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 151 wickets in 93 matches bowled in (of 114 played) — 1.62 per match at 18.3, economy 3.73, strike rate 29.5.
