Critical recommendations

Bowling
Conceding too many extras
0.9 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.7.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 18 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 40% · Batting 48 × 30% · Bowling 64 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.25 for the level played (Rep Div 1 6 · Club 18). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 24 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 9 catches + 6 run outs (2 direct, 4 assisted) in 58 matches — 0.26 per match.
- Batting
- 506 runs in 37 innings, adjusted average 22.6, strike rate 80.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 40 wickets in 44 matches bowled in (of 58 played) — 0.91 per match at 14.7, economy 4.82, strike rate 18.3.
