  • ● Body of work — 164 imported matches (+3.3)

Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 62.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.8.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 22 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 53 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 62 × 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 28). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 28 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 52 catches + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 164 matches — 0.34 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 100 innings at 16.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
229 wickets in 153 matches bowled in (of 164 played) — 1.50 per match at 15.8, economy 4.24, strike rate 22.3.
