Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 63.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
0.21 dismissals per match across 34 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.5.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting 42 × 30% · Bowling 60 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.61 for the level played (Rep Div 1 18 · Club 15 · 4th grade 1). 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 + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 34 matches — 0.21 per match.
- Batting
- 596 runs in 32 innings, adjusted average 23.3, strike rate 63.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 30 wickets in 29 matches bowled in (of 34 played) — 1.03 per match at 17.5, economy 3.85, strike rate 27.2.
