Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 51.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 30.3.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 106.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.5.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 27 × 40% · Batting 64 × 30% · Bowling 57 × 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 9). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 9 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 4 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 16 matches — 0.25 per match.
- Batting
- 291 runs in 12 innings, adjusted average 30.3, strike rate 51.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 30 wickets in 14 matches bowled in (of 16 played) — 2.14 per match at 17.5, economy 4.03, strike rate 26.1.
