Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 50.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

8 of 13 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.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.42 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 17.2.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 25 balls.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 8 catches in 19 matches (0.42 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 55 × 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 19). 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: 6 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 19 matches — 0.32 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 18 innings at 21.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
22 wickets in 18 matches bowled in (of 19 played) — 1.22 per match at 17.2, economy 4.18, strike rate 24.7.
