Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 43.7 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
medium
Fielding
Low overall fielding impact
0.20 dismissals per match across 35 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 8.9.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.40.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 16 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 19 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 75 × 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 35). 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: 6 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 35 matches — 0.20 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 34 innings at 20.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 37 wickets in 35 matches — 1.06 per match at 9.0, economy 3.40, strike rate 15.8.
