Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 50.8 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.2.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 22 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 25 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 70 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.36 for the level played (Rep Div 1 4 · Rep Div 2 7 · Club 29). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 40 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 28 catches + 9 run outs (5 direct, 4 assisted) in 133 matches — 0.28 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 93 innings at 15.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
152 wickets in 120 matches bowled in (of 133 played) — 1.27 per match at 14.2, economy 3.83, strike rate 22.2.
