Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 39.6 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 18% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.96.
- ✓ Safe hands — 40 catches in 104 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 39 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 46 × 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 104). 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: 38 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 104 matches — 0.41 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 108 innings at 15.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 154 wickets in 96 matches bowled in (of 104 played) — 1.60 per match at 18.5, economy 2.96, strike rate 37.5.
