Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 50.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 27 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 33 × 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 80). 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: 26 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 80 matches — 0.38 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 89 innings at 15.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 18 wickets in 16 matches bowled in (of 80 played) — 0.23 per match at 18.9, economy 3.97, strike rate 28.7.
