Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 31.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.62 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 9.4.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.56.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 22 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 8 catches in 13 matches (0.62 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 61 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 72 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.34 for the level played (Rep Div 1 2 · Club 11). 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: 8 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 13 matches — 0.69 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 13 innings at 23.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 13 wickets in 7 matches bowled in (of 13 played) — 1.86 per match at 9.4, economy 2.56, strike rate 22.0.
