Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 62.0 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 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.48 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.0.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 19 balls.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 13 catches in 27 matches (0.48 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 8 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 57 × 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 27). 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
Keeping: 7 catches + 3 stumpings + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 27 matches — 0.52 dismissals per match.
Batting
Not rated: 25 innings at 18.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
18 wickets in 12 matches bowled in (of 27 played) — 1.50 per match at 15.0, economy 4.66, strike rate 19.3.
