Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 56.8 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
10 of 14 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 10.8.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.75.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 24 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 34 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 76 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.68 for the level played (Rep Div 1 21 · 3rd grade 1 · Club 6 · 4th grade 1). 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 + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 29 matches — 0.41 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 24 innings at 15.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 42 wickets in 23 matches bowled in (of 29 played) — 1.83 per match at 10.8, economy 2.75, strike rate 23.6.
