Critical recommendations
medium
Bowling
Tight but not threatening
Economy of 1.88 is excellent but a wicket every 60 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting 32 × 30% · Bowling 55 × 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 3). 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: 0 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 3 matches — 0.00 per match.
- Batting
- 33 runs in 2 innings, adjusted average 16.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 4 wickets in 3 matches — 1.33 per match at 18.8, economy 1.88, strike rate 60.0.
