Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 55.9 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 14% 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

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 12 catches in 28 matches (0.43 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 61 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 51 × 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
No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
Fielding
Outfield: 11 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 28 matches — 0.43 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 29 innings at 20.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
16 wickets in 16 matches bowled in (of 28 played) — 1.00 per match at 20.3, economy 4.24, strike rate 28.6.
