Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 58.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
19 of 38 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Going at 5.80 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Only 0.14 catches per match over 42 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 9 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 32 × 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 20). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 20 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 42 matches — 0.10 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 42 innings at 15.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 11 wickets in 26 matches bowled in (of 42 played) — 0.42 per match at 39.1, economy 5.80, strike rate 40.5.
