Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 19.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Out for 0 in 16% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.72 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 12.1.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.43.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 21 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 21 catches in 29 matches (0.72 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 59 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 67 × 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 23). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 23 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 20 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 29 matches — 0.76 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 31 innings at 48.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 43 wickets in 20 matches bowled in (of 29 played) — 2.15 per match at 12.1, economy 3.43, strike rate 21.2.
