Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 62.2 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 19 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 39 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 42 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.41 for the level played (Rep Div 1 10 · Rep Div 2 6 · Club 32). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 48 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 21 catches + 19 run outs (2 direct, 17 assisted) in 130 matches — 0.31 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 107 innings at 18.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 75 wickets in 106 matches bowled in (of 130 played) — 0.71 per match at 17.0, economy 3.82, strike rate 26.7.
