Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 54.4 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
16 of 22 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
0.40 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 11.7.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 16 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 21 catches in 53 matches (0.40 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 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 32). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 32 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 21 catches + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 53 matches — 0.45 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 47 innings at 18.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 43 wickets in 44 matches bowled in (of 53 played) — 0.98 per match at 11.7, economy 4.51, strike rate 15.6.
