Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 41.1 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 11.3.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.99.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 23 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 9 × 40% · Batting 33 × 30% · Bowling 59 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.36 for the level played (Rep Div 1 15 · Rep Div 2 14 · Club 53). 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 + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 82 matches — 0.16 per match.
- Batting
- 1,148 runs in 73 innings, adjusted average 21.1, strike rate 41.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 46 wickets in 50 matches bowled in (of 82 played) — 0.92 per match at 11.3, economy 2.99, strike rate 22.7.
