Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 46.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Only 0.10 catches per match over 41 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Out for 0 in 19% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 3.48 is excellent but a wicket every 79 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 13 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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
- ×0.60 for the level played (1st grade 3 · Rep Div 1 15 · 2nd grade 13 · 3rd grade 8 · Club 1 · 4th grade 1). 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: 4 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 41 matches — 0.17 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 47 innings at 15.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 8 wickets from 105.2 overs across 18 matches bowled in (of 41 played) — 0.44 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
