Critical recommendations
medium
Batting
Too many aerial dismissals
19 of 26 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
medium
Bowling
Tight but not threatening
Economy of 3.25 is excellent but a wicket every 42 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.25.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 27 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 40 × 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 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 12 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 44 matches — 0.30 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 37 innings at 21.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 50 wickets in 42 matches bowled in (of 44 played) — 1.19 per match at 22.8, economy 3.25, strike rate 42.1.
