Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 49.7 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
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
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.9.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.85.
- ✓ Safe hands — 20 catches in 55 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 61 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 64 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.36 for the level played (Rep Div 1 10 · Club 45). 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: 20 catches + 8 run outs (8 direct, 0 assisted) in 55 matches — 0.51 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 51 innings at 20.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 43 wickets in 35 matches bowled in (of 55 played) — 1.23 per match at 14.9, economy 2.85, strike rate 31.3.
