  • ● Body of work — 69 imported matches (+1.4)

Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 54.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

42 of 60 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 124.
  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.2.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.95.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting 42 × 30% · Bowling 48 × 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 15). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 15 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 22 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 69 matches — 0.33 per match.
Batting
1,441 runs in 70 innings, adjusted average 23.5, strike rate 54.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
129 wickets in 66 matches bowled in (of 69 played) — 1.95 per match at 15.2, economy 2.95, strike rate 30.9.
