Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 57.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 18 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 36 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.61 for the level played (1st grade 43 · Rep Div 1 5 · 2nd grade 34 · 3rd grade 6 · Club 34 · 4th grade 8). 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: 25 catches + 18 run outs (18 direct, 0 assisted) in 130 matches — 0.33 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 93 innings at 18.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 133 wickets in 120 matches bowled in (of 130 played) — 1.11 per match at 29.1, economy 4.23, strike rate 41.3.
