high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 27.3 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 10% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 40% · Batting 51 × 30% · Bowling 83 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.39 for the level played (Rep Div 1 17 · Club 41). 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: 17 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 58 matches — 0.29 per match.
- Batting
- 697 runs in 38 innings, adjusted average 24.6, strike rate 27.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 91 wickets in 44 matches bowled in (of 58 played) — 2.07 per match at 8.9, economy 3.20, strike rate 16.6.
