Critical recommendations
medium
Bowling
Tight but not threatening
Economy of 3.20 is excellent but a wicket every 47 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 98.6) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Safe hands — 12 catches in 31 matches (0.39 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 40% · Batting 79 × 30% · 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 5). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 5 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 12 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 31 matches — 0.39 per match.
- Batting
- 465 runs in 25 innings, adjusted average 24.6, strike rate 98.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 17 wickets from 133.2 overs across 22 matches bowled in (of 31 played) — 0.77 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
