Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 49.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
medium
Bowling
Tight but not threatening
Economy of 3.81 is excellent but a wicket every 44 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 17 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 32 × 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 123). 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: 25 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 123 matches — 0.24 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 99 innings at 19.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 34 wickets in 87 matches bowled in (of 123 played) — 0.39 per match at 28.1, economy 3.81, strike rate 44.2.
