Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 51.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.50 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.7.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.87.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 50 catches in 100 matches (0.50 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 10 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 48 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 61 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.57 for the level played (Rep Div 1 36 · Rep Div 2 10 · Club 54). 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: 50 catches + 10 run outs (10 direct, 0 assisted) in 100 matches — 0.60 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 66 innings at 20.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
114 wickets in 99 matches bowled in (of 100 played) — 1.15 per match at 14.7, economy 2.87, strike rate 30.8.
