Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 30.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.5.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 24 balls.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 10 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 19 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 59 × 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 30). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 30 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 0 catches + 10 stumpings + 3 run outs (0 direct, 3 assisted) in 39 matches — 0.33 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 37 innings at 15.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 21 wickets in 20 matches bowled in (of 39 played) — 1.05 per match at 17.5, economy 4.46, strike rate 23.6.
