Critical recommendations
medium
Bowling
Tight but not threatening
Economy of 3.42 is excellent but a wicket every 45 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.75 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 15 catches in 20 matches (0.75 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 61 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 20). 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 + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 20 matches — 0.75 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 20 innings at 22.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 12 wickets from 90.2 overs across 13 matches bowled in (of 20 played) — 0.92 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
