Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 49.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
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
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 46 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 45 × 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 9). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 9 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 18 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 58 matches — 0.33 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 56 innings at 17.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 19 wickets in 28 matches bowled in (of 58 played) — 0.68 per match at 29.1, economy 5.04, strike rate 34.6.
