Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 56.2 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.62.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 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 28). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 28 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 12 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 49 matches — 0.31 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 52 innings at 26.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 52 wickets in 42 matches bowled in (of 49 played) — 1.24 per match at 22.8, economy 3.62, strike rate 37.8.
