Bowling
Economy under pressure
Going at 5.71 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 35.8.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 164.
- ✓ Safe hands — 18 catches in 51 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 39 × 40% · Batting 86 × 30% · 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 39). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 39 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 17 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 51 matches — 0.37 per match.
- Batting
- 1,730 runs in 52 innings, adjusted average 35.8, strike rate 89.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 13 wickets from 59.5 overs across 16 matches bowled in (of 51 played) — 0.25 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
