Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 36.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

13 of 18 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 17 catches in 41 matches (0.41 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 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
×0.30 for the level played (Club 41). 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: 10 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 41 matches — 0.24 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 40 innings at 15.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
25 wickets in 40 matches bowled in (of 41 played) — 0.62 per match at 18.8, economy 4.87, strike rate 23.2.
