Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 61.1 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 13% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 18 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 52 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.46 for the level played (Rep Div 1 15 · Club 30). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 45 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 29 catches + 18 run outs (8 direct, 10 assisted) in 102 matches — 0.46 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 100 innings at 15.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 52 wickets in 74 matches bowled in (of 102 played) — 0.70 per match at 16.7, economy 4.57, strike rate 21.9.
