Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 63.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
1.5 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
Out for 0 in 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 44 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 23 × 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 45). 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: 14 catches + 6 run outs (6 direct, 0 assisted) in 45 matches — 0.44 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 43 innings at 16.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 21 wickets in 44 matches bowled in (of 45 played) — 0.48 per match at 25.0, economy 4.46, strike rate 33.6.
