Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 14.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Going at 6.72 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Out for 0 in 40% 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 38 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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 8). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 8 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 3 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 11 matches — 0.36 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 10 innings at 21.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 4 wickets from 25.0 overs across 8 matches bowled in (of 11 played) — 0.50 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
